PLAYER RATINGS

-

SAM SLOCOMBE:

Was beaten at his near post by Ben House’s strike which was the only shot he had to face in the opening 45 minutes. Made a super stop in the second half. 5/10

DION KELLY-EVANS:

Was Notts’ best player and looked to be the only one who realised what was at stake. 6/10

CONNELL RAWLINSON:

Had plenty of the ball as Notts passed it around the back at will and showed threat from a couple of set-pieces in the first half. 5/10

BEN TURNER:

Aerially dominant but picked up a booking as he was beaten in a one v one. 4/10

ALEX LACEY:

Caught the eye with a couple of passes and seemed to be untroubled in the aerial exchanges. 5/10

ADAM CHICKSEN:

Looked busy and had a couple of set-pieces which caused problems. Not really a marauding wing-back. 4/10

JAKE REEVES:

Sloppy in possession at times in midfield. The industry was there but in terms of trying to break down a stubborn Eastleigh defence, the creativity was badly lacking. 4/10

REGAN GRIFFITHS:

Struggled to really stamp his authority on the game but was continuall­y angered by the passes he received in congested areas. But was robbed of the ball in some key areas. 4/10

LEWIS KNIGHT:

Had one moment where he showed his pace and struck at goal. 4/10

KYLE WOOTTON:

The forward had zero service and was faced with a very capable defender in Andrew Boyce. Found it difficult to find any space. 4/10

JIMMY KNOWLES:

His best moments came when he was heading towards his own goal in the first half as all the strikers came short. Was better in the second half. 4/10

SUBSTITUTE­S

ENZIO BOLDEWIJN (KNIGHT 56):

Took him quite a while to get into the game but produced a couple of penetratin­g runs. 4/10

JIM O’BRIEN (GRIFFITHS 72):

Midfielder looked bright when he came on. 4/10

CALVIN MILLER (TURNER 72):

Really struggled to make an impression. 4/10

SUBS NOT USED Ellis, Doyle.
