Boston United 0 Worcester City 0
Worcester City (4-2-3-1)
7 Boot – bounced back brilliantly after his calamitous display last weekend as he made a fine save to deny Waide Fairhurst.
7 Gallinagh – covered plenty of ground during a tireless showing as he defended doggedly and got forward when he could.
7 Hutchison – had a busy afternoon and coped very well, although he was fortunate when Jay Rollins failed to make the most of his slip-up.
8 OJI – once he found his feet, the powerful centre-back grew in confidence and made a vital last-ditch tackle to thwart Fairhurst.
7 Weir – a professional performance from the full back who stuck to his task and kept his discipline throughout.
7 English – worked hard and had the bruises to show for it as he was forced off late on after a clash off heads with Callum Chippendale.
6 Fitzpatrick – making his first start since mid-August, the young midfielder looked assured, but struggled to get his side on the front foot.
7 Steele – deserved more for his efforts as he battled for the ball and was always looking to make something happen for City.
6 Nelson-Addy – back playing in a more advantage role, the attacking midfielder ran hard, but was guilty of being sloppy in possession.
6 Evans – a decent debut from the winger who made a bright start and showed glimpses of what he could do before fading in the second period.
7 Hughes – missed two good opportunities to score, but never stopped running and led the line superbly as the lone striker.
