LOAN WATCH: Chelsea pair Colkett, Clarke-Salter fire Bristol Rovers into top five

Bristol Rovers scored a 2-0 win over Oldham Athletic in England's League One on the weekend.

The Pirates moved into the top five in the third division courtesy of goals from Chelsea loan pair Charlie Colkett and Jake Clarke-Salter.

20-year-old midfielder Colkett struck in the 25th minute with what is fast-becoming a customary finish on his trusty left foot for his third goal for the club.

Defender Clarke-Salter wrapped it up for Darrell Clarke's side in the 87th minute when heading home a corner from vice-captain Chris Lines for his first goal in just his third outing for Rovers.

Check out the highlights below courtesy of the club's official YouTube channel:
