Wycombe Wanderers 1 Bristol Rovers 0 Saturday 27th February 2016 Football League Two ![]() The result came on a day when news was revealed that Paris Cowan-Hall was expected to miss the rest of the season with ankle ligament damage. The Millwall loanee had appeared on loan for Rovers earlier in the season and was looking to be a key figure in Wanderers' promotion ambitions. Elsewhere, Aaron Pierre also remained out injured while Garry Thompson was serving the final game of his three match suspension. As Gareth Ainsworth re-jigged his team, Matt Bloomfield and Max Kretzschmar were favoured in the starting XI to Sido Jombati and Sam Wood while Michael Harriman was used again in a more defensive role. The winning goal came following a foul on Wood by James Clarke a few yards into the Rovers half. Jacobson's flighted ball into the Rovers box was met by O'Nien's head at around the penalty spot mark and their was enough direction on the contact to send the ball into the left corner of the Valley End net and prompt the celebrations on the Wycombe camp. It's now on to 12th placed Cambridge United (five points behind Wanderers) on Tuesday evening amongst a full programme of League Two fixtures. Full-time - Wycombe 1 Bristol Rovers 0
