Newport 0-0 Stevenage: PLAYER RATINGS
Newport 0-0 Stevenage: PLAYER RATINGS

Stevenage played out another 0-0 stalemate away to Newport County on Saturday.

A game that lacked any real creative spark or cutting edge ended with a point apiece.

Boro boss Alex Revell will be reasonably happy with his team's defensive solidity but once again will be disappointed with missed chances.

However, ultimately, both teams will be happy with a point in their contrasting hunt for promotion and survival.

Read on to see how Hitchin Nub News rated each players performance.

Stevenage

Jamie Cumming: 6.5 - Dealt well with the terrible pitch condition, some comfortable saves but no major stops were made

Luther James-Wildin: 6.5 - Comfortable game down his wing, didn't make much attacking progress but was defensively astute

Terrence Vancooten: 7 - Won every challenge and aerial due, immense defending at times, no faults once again for the youngster. MOTM

Scott Cuthbert: 6 - Led his line well, won most aerial duels, solid defensive performance

Joe Martin: 5.5 - Dealt well with trouble but could've done better with a few longer balls forward

Ben Coker: 6 - Couldn't do much with the ball at his feet due to the pitch, resorted to balls down the line and crosses which were largely ineffective

Tom Pett: 6.5 - Looked to get Boro forward through any means, made it scrappy when it needed to be

Chris Lines: 5.5 - Struggled to keep the ball on the floor with the awful playing surface, effective at times but struggled with the directness of Newport

Elliot Osborne: 5.5 - Some bright moments

Elliot List: 6 - Had one big chance which he should've converted, looked lethargic and not his usual energetic self

Danny Newton: 6 - Relatively un affective, no clear-cut chances but worked hard on and off the ball

Substitutions:

Stevens: 6

Vincelot: 5.5

……………..

Newport

Townsend: 6 - Dealt well with the crosses into the box, confident kicks and led his line well

Farquharson: 6.5 - Solid partnership with his defenders on the left side of a back three

Dolan: 6 - Commanded his team well, looked to drive forward when on the ball and ran the line confidently

Demetriou: 6.5 - Constant menace with his long throws, solid defensively

Shephard: 6 - Kept the ball well, positive in possession

Bennett: 5.5 - Battled well against Pett and Lines, kept Newton quiet on the edge of the box, confident performance.

Sheehan: 6 - Worked hard but missed that persistent to get forward at certain opportunities

Hartigan: 6.5 - Composed and confident in the middle, adapted well to the playing surface

Haynes: 6 - Ran the channels purposefully with little reward

Telford: 6 - Had some moments of promise, looked lively but with no end result

Maynard: 5.5 - Chased down every ball, had one or two chances to maybe test the keeper but failed to make his mark on the game

Substitutions:

Scrimshaw: 6

Amond: 5.5

Taylor: 5.5

Gambin: 6

Ellison: 5
