Five-star Wolves rock Rovers
Wolves cruised into the fourth round of the FA Cup after brushing aside Doncaster's relatively feeble challenge with a 5-0 win.
Rovers had a great chance to take an early lead when Dean Shiels, a late replacement for Martin Woods who suffered a groin strain in the warm-up, delivered a delightful low cross in behind the new-look Wolves rearguard for Billy Sharp to run onto. With only Marcus Hahnemann to beat, the 11-goal forward could only rifle his drive against the advancing American.
The importance of such a save and Sharp's effective miss became all too apparent just two minutes later as Wolves scored the only goal of the first half. Kevin Doyle initially combined with Stephen Hunt down the left, with the latter then whipping in a piercing delivery for Stephen Fletcher to glance home from eight yards beyond Neil Sullivan.
Geoffrey Mujangi Bia blazed over with the goal at his mercy but he gained his just reward for his industry by finishing off a 61st-minute move with a powerful 12-yard drive for his first goal for the club.
Doyle had been the supplier on that occasion with a low cross from the left and five minutes later he squeezed an acutely-angled shot in off the right post.
Substitute Matthew Jarvis made it 4-0 with 16 minutes left when he finished expertly with a sidefoot shot beyond Sullivan for his first goal since mid-October. David Jones then swept home a Jarvis corner to give the club their biggest win since a 6-0 victory over Gillingham in March 2003.
