Gillingham 2-2 Doncaster Rovers

Doncaster secured their place in the League Two play-offs with a 2-2 draw despite letting slip a two-goal lead against Gillingham at Priestfield.

Joe Ironside had put the visitors ahead on the half-hour mark when he diverted Owen Bailey's cross from close range before Luke Molyneux's stunning left-footed strike shortly afterwards put Grant McCann's side in a commanding position going into the break.

However, the game turned on its head following the sending off of goalkeeper Thimothee Lo-Tutala and the Gills netted twice in quick succession to make it a level game.

The visitors were reduced to 10 men in the 55th minute when Lo-Tutala was dismissed for handling outside his area, and Rovers' advantage was immediately halved when Timothee Dieng's powerful strike found its way past substitute keeper Louis Jones.

Josh Andrews' tap-in went in off Doncaster defender Tom Anderson just a few minutes later to level proceedings.

Doncaster resisted severe pressure in the closing stages, but held on to secure the required point to confirm their place in the play-offs as Gillingham finished the season in 12th place.
