How to Disallow Particular Path in robots.txt

Question

I want to disallow /path but also wanna allow /path/another-path in robots.txt. I already tried:

Disallow: /path

Or:

Disallow: /path$

But doesn't work, I mean it blocked /path/another-path too. Is it possible to do that? Any help would be appreciated.

You could use Allow. But note that it's not part of the original "specification", however, some search engines support it.

User-agent: *
Allow: /path/another-path
Disallow: /path/
