Hendo double delights boss

TWO late goals from midfielder Ian Henderson gave Rochdale a morale-boosting 2-0 victory at Doncaster in Sky Bet League One.

The Spotland outfit had not been at their best in recent fixtures, but a much-changed team which featured Henderson, Castro Pereira, Oliver Lancashire, Donal McDermott and Thomas Kennedy prevailed.

The game seemed to be heading for a goalless stalemate until Henderson curled a shot into the top corner.

And, deep into injury time, Henderson made it 2-0 when he tapped in a McDermott pass after the latter had rounded the goalkeeper.

Dale boss Keith Hill said: “You have to hold your nerve when going a few games without a win.

“It came right for us and I’m pleased about that.”
