Stats from Bristol Rovers Game

With Hereford United being defeated 6-1, few supporters would expect the stats to show anything other than domination by Bristol Rovers.

But in some ways that would be incorrect.

Hereford United had 52% of the posession, mainly in mid-field, whereas Rovers had 48%.

The Bulls had nine shots on target, although most of them were 'weak'. Rovers also had nine shots on target and made six of them count. Both sides had nine off-target shots.

And the Bulls had seven corners against just four for Rovers.

Unusually the Bulls were penalised for more fouls than Rovers - nine times against six.

Ben Smith received an eight, Toumani Diagouraga and Simon Johnson both were awarded sevens as was sub Bradley Hudson-Odoi.

Sam Oji was yellow carded for unsporting behaviour. Twice, in quick succession, he kept the ball when referee Andy Hall had awarded Rovers a free kick. The second time he was booked.

The gate was 6735 with 588 from Hereford.
