5. Harrison Burrows 7
Had a lot of the ball down the left flank in the first half and looked a real threat with it. Good defensively, too | Getty Images

6. Sydie Peck 7.5
Another composed display from the young Blade, who did all the simple things well in difficult conditions to get the foot on the ball and play. Booked early in the second half for dragging back El Ghazi and had to walk a tightrope from there on in but managed that situation well | Sportimage
7. Tom Davies 7
For a man with his injury issues of late it impressed me when he launched himself into a 50/50 in the first half with every chance that he could come off second best, but there seemed to be no other thought in his mind other than winning the ball. Had a couple of sights of goal blocked - one he didn't seem to catch properly and one that he hit a little better, but couldn't test Alnwick. The home goalkeeper had to work harder to keep out his header in the second half | Sportimage
8. Jesurun Rak-Sakyi 5
Had another relatively quiet first half but did show some bright moments, including a promising cross that was just too high for Moore in the middle. Couldn't really get into the game in the second half and made way for Brewster | Sportimage
