Stevenage drew 1-1 away to Harrogate as Steve Evans men failed to capitalise after leaders Leyton Orient drew with Barrow, writes Owen Rodbard at Wetherby Road

Carl Piergianni's opener was cancelled out by Luke Armstrong's header to send Boro back home disappointed after a less than impressive display following their FA Cup heroics last week. 

See how Hitchin Nub rated each players performance. 

Stevenage:

Ashby-Hammond: 5- Poor kicking in the windy conditions, needs to be more commanding in his box 

Wildin: 4.5- Not aggressive enough in the first half, some poor balls into the box and struggled defensively 

Sweeney: 5.5- Caught flat footed on multiple occasions, came out second half brighter with some good touches and balls forward 

Vancooten: 6- Some good line breaking passes and runs forward, mopped up well defensively with some good anticipation

Piergianni: 6- Very alert for his goal, won all his aerial duels, brilliant goal line clearance 

Clark: 5- Beaten too easily at times, caught out on the ball 

Reeves: 4.5- Some good recovery tackles and bursting runs forward, looked tired at times

Taylor: 4.5- Stark contrast from his Coutinho pocketing antics of Sunday, couldn't get the ball on the floor and most of his passes went wayward

Roberts: 5- Struggled to make an impact and with the pace of the game, picked up a silly yellow card 

Norris: 4- Disappointing performance, poor hold up play and made little impact

Rose: 5.5- Biggest creative spark in the first 45, struggled with the wind in the second half with no one around him to knock the ball on to
