Forest Green Rovers 2-1 Tranmere Rovers

Second-half goals from Josh Davison and an Aaron Collins' penalty pushed 10-man Forest Green back into the League Two play-offs with home victory over Tranmere Rovers.

A lethargic first-half, devoid of chances, only brought about a free header for Tranmere's Peter Clarke and a scuffed volley for Forest Green's Scott Wagstaff.

Collins picked up a stoppage-time yellow for simulation on the edge of the box when taking a dive under a challenge from Manny Monthe.

Forest Green nudged ahead on 50 minutes - Davison with a sumptuous finish beyond Joe Murphy after the ball dropped to him from a Kane Wilson cross.

Seven minutes later, Ebou Adams was handed a second yellow after an aerial challenge on Calum MacDonald.

Forest Green made it 2-0 with nine minutes to go - Collins converting the penalty he won himself after Murphy upended him in the box.

Deep into six minutes of injury time, a thumping Kieron Morris strike handed Tranmere late consolation.

Forest Green move up to seventh and travel to Oldham on the final day, while Tranmere remain in the play-offs but dropped to sixth.
