Coulthirst 7 - Hold up play was great. A handful for the defence and retained the ball well, but a couple of times didn’t release the ball when he had someone in a better position.

D.Rose 7.5 - Scored the vital goal, and had another header cleared off the line, and one shot blocked in the second half.
