Wycombe 2 - 1 Bristol Rovers

Wycombe   2 - 1   Bristol Rovers

Jon-Paul Pittman's superb late strike gave Wycombe their first win of the season against in-form Rovers.

The visitors took the lead when Danny Coles headed down Stuart Campbell's corner for Chris Lines to sweep into the net from close range.

But Wycombe drew level just 10 minutes later when Matt Phillips drifted inside and fired a spectacular drive into the top corner.

And they won it when Pittman turned and shot into the net in the 80th minute.
