Hakeeb Adelakun's early goal proved enough for Doncaster against AFC Wimbledon
Doncaster continued their strong run of form with a narrow 1-0 win over Wimbledon.
Hakeeb Adelakun netted the only goal after three minutes to make it five games unbeaten for Rovers and further dampen any lingering fears of being dragged into a relegation fight.
Lincoln loanee Adelakun latched-on to a pass from Harrison Biggins before slotting into the bottom corner as Rovers made a bright start.
They looked the more likely to find the next goal for the remainder of the first half. Adelakun stung the palms of Wimbledon keeper Alex Bass with a low drive while Tom Anderson headed off target and Joe Ironside drew another good save.
Wimbledon - without a win in their last four - were more threatening in the second half as manager Johnnie Jackson threw on multiple attacking options.
But the visitors struggled for clear chances, with a pair of low drives from James Tilley testing keeper Thimothee Lo-Tutala as Rovers held on for the win.
