Tranmere Rovers 3-0 Harrogate Town

Tranmere Rovers recorded their first League Two win of the season at the third attempt with a victory over Harrogate Town at Prenton Park.

In a lively opening the home side looked the more threatening, coming close through Kristian Dennis and Kieron Morris.

And Rovers' pressure eventually told in the 24th minute when the unchallenged Luke Norris headed home Connor Jennings' cross at the far post.

Just two minutes later the home side doubled their lead when Sam Taylor raced clear to slot the ball under Harrogate goalkeeper Mark Oxley.

After the restart, Town looked the more dangerous with chances falling to Liam Gibson, Abraham Odoh and Luke Armstrong, while Matty Foulds' free-kick rattled the Tranmere crossbar.

But the game was put beyond doubt in the 89th minute when Morris fired home to ensure Ian Dawes' side picked up their first three points of the new campaign while inflicting a second consecutive defeat on Simon Weaver's Harrogate.
