Substitute Cavegn’s Hat Trick Powers Bristol Rovers to Shocking Win
SHREWSBURY, England (Interstat) — Substitute Fabrizio Cavegn scored a second-half hat trick to propel Bristol Rovers to a stunning 3-0 victory over Shrewsbury Town in a League Two match Thursday at The Croud Meadow. The result defied pregame projections that heavily favored the hosts. Cavegn broke a scoreless deadlock in the 63rd minute before adding goals in the 88th and third minute of stoppage time to seal the win. William Boyle, Isaac England and Taylor Moore each provided assists for Bristol Rovers. The visitors’ defense held firm despite yellow cards to Boyle, England and Moore in a four-minute span late in the second half. The loss marked a disappointing start to the new year for Shrewsbury.
