Crawley Town and Bristol Rovers have played out a goalless first half in the FA Cup second-round replay at the Broadfield Stadium.

The hosts had the game's first chance after just two minutes when Mark Connolly tried his luck from distance, but his shot went wide.

Mark Connolly also went for a long-range attempt but in vain, before Jamie Proctor headed Billy Clarke's cross narrowly wide.

Crawley continued to dominate as Joe Walsh and Ollie Clarke both had chances just past the half-hour mark, before Kyle McFadzean and Proctor put the Rovers defence under pressure in the final five minutes of the half.
