Bristol Rovers 2-1 Leyton Orient

Danny Coles had a match to remember as Bristol Rovers came from behind to take the points against Leyton Orient.

The Rovers defender's attempt to clear a 46th-minute ball into the box from Jason Demetriou saw him slice past his own goalkeeper to give Orient the lead.

Coles headed the equaliser from Stuart Campbell's 62nd-minute cross, before Craig Hinton hit a 70th-minute winner.

Orient's Ryan Jarvis saw a 71st-minute free-kick deflect off the defensive wall and on to the crossbar.
