Here is how we rated the individual Rovers performances from the Stadium of Light.
1. Seny Dieng - 8
Did not have a great deal to do for 95 per cent of the game but produced two vital saves in the later stages. So strong in the air and controlled the ball very well. Photo: JPIMedia
2. Brad Halliday - 8
Asked to do much more of the defensive side of the game than normal, he coped very well and still managed to push forward with directness and pace. Photo: JPIMedia
3. Joe Wright - 9
Another rock at the back. Dealt with aerial assault well and stood up to the physical test superbly. Him and Anderson are one hell of a partnership. Photo: JPIMedia
4. Tom Anderson - 9
Man mountain. His battling determination characterised the whole performance from the side. He got the better of Wyke throughout and handled the introduction of Lafferty later on. Rock solid. Photo: JPIMedia
