Billy Sharp's second-half effort sees Doncaster overcome league leaders Southampton in a surprise result at the Keepmoat.

Another Billy Sharp goal saw Doncaster cause a surprise upset in the top versus bottom Championship clash this afternoon.

The Rovers forward has scored six in his last eight games and his strike on the hour was enough for a home victory.

After a first half of few chances, Marc-Antoine Fortune held off a couple of challenges before squaring to Sharp, who made no mistake.

The win is Donny's first at home this season.

Nigel Adkins's Saints remain top of the league.
