Half-Time Report: John-Joe O'Toole gives Bristol Rovers lead over Cheltenham Town

Bristol Rovers are leading at half time for the first time in four League Two matches.

The Pirates are 1-0 up against Cheltenham Town at the break thanks to John-Joe O'Toole's 13th goal of the season.

O'Toole broke the deadlock on 33 minutes with a crisp left-footed volley from the edge of the penalty area.

The former Republic of Ireland Under-21 international had gone close to opening the scoring eight minutes earlier, flashing a shot just over the crossbar following Chris Beardsley's knockdown.

Rovers' defence has been fairly solid at home this season, conceding just 13 goals in their first 14 league games at the Memorial Ground.
