A Jones: Issues early on, but regrouped. 6
Greaves: One-time Boro target was strong in both boxes. 7
Coyle: Decent shift before making way. 6

Hide AdEngel: Assist for goal. Busy defensively, but also got forward. 6
Howson: Some key involvements. Grew into the game. 7
O’Brien: Exposed by Dieng’s dreadful pass for second. Did provide some drive for Boro. 7
I Jones: Looked dangerous early on. Faded and then revived himself as it got stretched. Set up Azaz’s goal. 7
Azaz: Quiet until scoring a big goal when he came into the game, big time. Much better as game opened up. 7
Greenwood: Game passed him by as Hull took over. 5
Latte Lath: Super opener which showed his sharpness and confidence. 7
Substitutes: Silvera (Greenwood 74).
Thomas (Engel 83).
Not used: Glover, Barlaser, Gilbert, Bangura, McCabe, Finch.
