But the biggest plus of the night was the performance of winger Alex Mighten.

David Stockdale – one rush of blood, one good second-half save 6

Jack Hunt – did not get forward that much but still enough to hit the post 6

Dominic Iorfa – an important header over the bar and a good block before he was allowed to go galloping down the right 7

Mark McGuinness – solid at centre-back 6

Reece James – bombed on well and even popped up at centre-forward at one point, although he ballooned his finish 7

Tyreeq Bakinson – one sloppy pass apart, it was a really good midfield performance 7

Will Vaulks – nothing spectacular from the central midfield 6

Alex Mighten – outstanding performance down the left, capped by a goal 8

Josh Windass – gorgeous goal and a header tipped onto the bar 7

Mallik Wilks – carried over the confidence won last weekend although he could not find the net this time 7

Michael Smith – worked the forward line well 6

Substitutes:

Marvin Johnson (for James, 70) – came on to give the fit-again James a breather 5

Michael Ihiekwe (for Hunt, 70) – a 20-minute run-out 5

Fisayo Dele-Bashiru (for Windass, 70) – kept the attacking impetus up 6

Callum Paterson (for Wilks, 81) – game was dead by the time he came on 5

Not used: Charles, Ihiekwe, Brown, Johnson, Dele-Bashiru, Byers, Bannan, Paterson, Gregory.
