D'Mani Mellor scored the opener as Forest Green Rovers fought out a 2-2 draw with Bristol Rovers in a Club Friendly, the result setting up a meeting with Cardiff City next. The League Two hosts raced into a two-goal lead inside the first sixteen minutes, only for the League One visitors to salvage a share of the spoils late on.

The turning point arrived across a frantic opening quarter-hour: Mellor poked home the tenth-minute opener before James Berry doubled the advantage six minutes later, leaving Bristol Rovers stunned. The visitors slowly wrestled control after the interval, halving the deficit through Tommy Leigh on 74 minutes, before an unassisted strike deep into stoppage time snatched a point and denied Forest Green a famous victory.

The statistics painted an even contest, with both sides sharing exactly 50% possession, though Forest Green’s nine corners to five reflected their early dominance. D'Mani Mellor was the standout, earning a 9.01 rating for his goal and all-round display. CheckLive's model clearly favoured Bristol Rovers, but the draw proved the prediction incorrect as the hosts held firm. Forest Green Rovers now host Cardiff City on 25 July.
