.
James Belshaw 8. Much of the work he got through was routine, though he made one important save with his feet to deny Tyrone Marsh. An assured performance.
.
Ryan Fallowfield 8. Provided good width from right-back during the first half. Kept things pretty tight down his side of the pitch, matching Wood's speedy left-winger Sorba Thomas for pace.
.
Will Smith 7. Had his hands due to the sizeable presence of Matt Rhead and wasn't at his dominant best aerially, though it was his excellent header that set up Jack Muldoon for the only goal of the game.

Connor Hall 8. Like Will Smith, was unsettled by the presence of Matt Rhead at times. Read the game well, however, making a couple of key interceptions and a goal-line clearance, while spraying some raking passes out of defence.
