A very pleasing first half display, probably the best 45 of the season. Shaky second half but defended well.
Sandomierski - 7 - Didn't have much to do, but made a world class save from a header in the second half which ensured the clean sheet
Kane - 8 - Got a really bright future, was excellent all night, got the balance between defense and attack just right and loves a tackle.
Dann - 9 - Another imperious performance from the captain, won me over this year, the most consistent player of the season.
Givet - 8 - Got better as the game wore on, battled for every ball, textbook Givet performance!
Marcus Olsson - 7 - Gave the ball away cheaply on too many occasions, but still a solid performance in an unsual role.
King - 7 - Another who started poorly, but showed his skill and pace in the second half, something to build on.
Williamson - 9 - Man of the match performance, was fantastic in the middle, wanted the ball, tackled, got forward, moved the ball on quickly and worked his socks off.
Jones - 7 - Another who put his heart and soul into the game, still relies too much on his left foot and beats himself at times, but put in a real shift
Lowe - 7 - A decent performance from the young man, made a crucial block and also won a vital header in the first half.
Best - 6 - Still looks a yard off the pace, and needs a goal for his confidence, but won some headers and held the ball up well at times.
Rhodes - 8 - Another vintage Rhodes poachers goal, worked hard up top and on another day with more protection from the referee would have won a dozen free kicks. Classy not to celebrate and was applauded from all stands at the final whistle.
Subs
Pedersen - 6 - Gave the ball away too much, but his experience helped in the dying minutes
Goodwillie - 6 - Actually did ok, a couple of nice touches and a decent shot on goal, has never really been given much of a chance to prove himself at this level, showed he can at least be a willing runner off the bench
Dunn - 6 - Again, came on with the game on the line with 10 minutes to go, some neat touches, but the hard work had already been done by the starting 11.
