The opening minutes saw Bristol Rovers take the lead when Ellis Harrison finished from a pass by Shaq Forde.

Dean Brennan altered his side’s shape just before the break, and Tom Knowles’ effort on 43 minutes signalled a shift in momentum. In the second half, Adam Senior headed the equaliser in the 79th minute, tapping the ball home from a cross by Kabongo Tshimanga. Five minutes later, Zac Williams collected the ball on the edge of the box and struck a low shot that kissed the crossbar before finding the net. Tshimanga completed the scoring in the final minutes, finishing a counter‑attack to make the final score 3-1. Barnet FC said the performance demonstrated the squad’s depth and highlighted the impact of the triple substitution at the 59th minute, which introduced Brandon Comley, Damola Ajayi and Nik Tavares.
