ADRIANO Rigoglioso struck in the first half as Forest Green saw off a stubborn Hednesford side to progress into the last eight of the FA Trophy.

The striker scored the only goal of the game on 37 minutes when he fired home after Andy Mangan saw his shot blocked.

Rovers dominated most of the second half but couldn’t find the second goal and were nearly punished at the end as Hednesford had a goal ruled out.
