Ethan Ennis grabs an assist for high-flying Doncaster Rovers in 3-1 win
Manchester United’s Ethan Ennis grabbed an assist in Doncaster Rovers’ 3-1 away win against Barrow AFC on Wednesday night.
The 20 year old made his fourth appearance for the side after making his loan move in January.
The United youngster started on the left wing and played 80 minutes before being subbed off.
Ennis received a score of 7 from Sofascore for his night’s work as his side stayed second in the League Two table with the victory.
The United man’s biggest contribution was an assist on 78 minutes for Luke Molyneux’s second goal of the night and the Rovers’ third.
Molyneux played a short corner to Ennis, who laid the ball off for the right winger who curled a long-range effort into the far corner to make the points safe for the visitors.
Ennis had 37 touches of the ball and completed 14 out of his 19 passes for a passing accuracy of 74%.
He also completed two out of his three long passes, showing off his range.
The United man did fail to have any shots on or off target in the match and this is surely something he will try and rectify in the next match.
The 20 year old was also competitive in his ground duels, winning five out of his eight attempts.
He did struggle to assert himself in the air as he lost all five of his aerial battles in the match.
Defensively he also contributed with one clearance and two tackles to help his side take home a very valuable three points as they seek promotion to League One.
Donny will next be in action on Saturday afternoon when they welcome MK Dons to the Eco-Power Stadium, where they will be looking to close the gap on Ethan Wheatley’s Walsall at the top of the table.
