Emmanuel: Heavily involved in the first half and got forward when he could and supplied the cross which led to United's second. 7

Wood: Caught out a little for the Iron's leveller and copped a first-half booking for hauling back Toney. Regrouped well enough. 6

Ihiekwe: Moment to forget in diverting Holmes' effort into his own net. Looked hesistant at times and didn't cover himself in glory for the second leveller. 5

Mattock: Beaten by Adelukan in the build-up to the Iron's leveller. But kept going. 6
