9. Cameron McGeehan
Involved in some good moments as Town dominated before the break. Excellent breakaway and pass teed up a decent opening for Roberts. Led the line valiantly in the second half despite little support and battling against the conditions... 7 Photo: Pete Norton
10. Tyler Roberts
Constantly looked dangerous throughout the first half but he just couldn't find the final pass or shot to go with some good approach work. Fired his best chance into the side-netting. Probably should have shot earlier or squared it. Far less influential as the second half played out very differently... 6.5 Photo: Pete Norton
11. Tom Eaves
Drafted in at the last minute due to Costelloe's injury, his first appearance in nearly two months, and toiled away gallantly in the circumstances. Not much fell for him though... 6 Photo: Pete Norton
12. Tyler Magloire
Won an important header from a stoppage-time corner... 6 Photo: Pete Norton
