Gary RedknappFootball AnalystРОЗБІР МАТЧУ

Fabio Tavares’s first-half strike was enough to give Rotherham United a 1-0 win over Alfreton Town in a Club Friendly, with Josh Benson’s composed midfield display earning him the man-of-the-match honours as the visitors now prepare to face Sheffield United next week. The League One side never looked entirely comfortable but found a way to grind out the result against their non-league hosts.

The only goal arrived in the 23rd minute when Fabio Tavares bundled the ball home after a scramble in the box, with no assist credited for the simple finish. Rotherham dominated the set-piece count thereafter, winning seven corners to Alfreton’s none, but could not add a second and were forced to defend their slender lead for the final hour.

Despite the loss, Alfreton Town matched Rotherham’s 50% possession and had their own spells of pressure, but the visitors controlled the game from corners — seven to zero — and did enough on efficiency. Josh Benson was the standout with a 7.38 rating, anchoring the midfield without a goal to his name. CheckLive’s model rated Alfreton Town the clearer side before kick-off, but the result did not confirm that prediction, as Rotherham’s clinical edge told. Rotherham United now face Sheffield United on 25 July.
