Bryant Bilongo capped his first EFL appearance with a dramatic late winner to snatch Bristol Rovers a 1-0 victory over Northampton at the Memorial Stadium.
The 22-year-old headed in the winner from close range from a Luke Thomas corner in the first minute of stoppage time to ensure his first game since moving from Middlesbrough ended on a high.

Cobblers goalkeeper Lee Burge foiled another Rovers debutant, Promise Omochere, in the first half with a brilliant low save and then kept out Kamil Conteh and Joel Senior efforts late on before Bilongo had the final say.
