Stockport County 0 Tranmere Rovers 2 ( EFL Trophy Final Group Stage Match) Tuesday 9 November 2024
County slumped to a rare EFL Trophy defeat at the hands of a determined and resilient Tranmere Rovers side that deservedly took the honours , winning 2-0 on a cool Edgeley Park evening last night via 2 first half goals from Kristian Dennis ( who else) and Josh Hawkes. For all intents and purposes, the game was over at half time- County attacking play did improve in the second half and Rovers keeper did have to make 2 totally belting saves to keep the scoreline as it finished, but really Rovers played it cool after the break- attacked when they could looking altogether more dangerous doing so than any of the home specs in the 1200 + Tuesday evening crowd perhaps would have expected . No matter , Tranmere held out relatively comfortably , and in the end the 92 Rovers fans who made the trip to cheer them on and shiver bravely on the Pop Side , will have thought their journey to be well worth doing. …………………………………..
