Cambridge 0-1 Stevenage: PLAYER RATINGS - Boro ruin U's promotion party

Stevenage ruined the party as they won 1-0 against fierce rivals Cambridge, who only needed a point to ensure promotion.

A Luke Norris header from a set piece proved the all decisive goal as Boro did the league double over the U's.

Alex Revell will be certainly impressed by his team, as they dominated for large spells and the score line should've been more convincing if they'd converted some of their first half chances.

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

Stevenage:

Jamie Cumming: 7 - Some great catches, good commanding of his defenders

Luther James-Wildin: 7.5 - Some good balls into the box, powerful running down his wing, wouldn't stop running

Terrence Vancooten: 8- Dealt well with the imposing Ironside, immense defending all game

Luke Prosser: 7.5 - Won every aerial duel, stopped Mullin having any clear chances

Ben Coker: 7- Great balls into the box from set pieces, imposing down the left-hand side

Jack Smith: 7- Alive to danger, very good on the ball, big future ahead for him

Chris Lines: 6.5- Some impressive balls forward and some brilliant challenges and recovery tackles

Tom Pett: 7- Kept the ball moving, made it scrappy when it needed to be,

Jack Aitchinson: 6.5- Kept the ball well, involved in some good passages of play, tricky feet

Elliot List: 7- Always looking to drive forward when in possession, always aware and electric

Luke Norris: 8.5- Strong in his hold up, looked to create and build his partnership with List, good reactions for his goal, MOTM

Substitutions:

Elliot Osborne: 6.5

Romain Vincelot: 7

Matty Stevens: 7

Cambridge:

Callum Burton: 3.5- Terrible kicking at times, poor decision making

Kyle Knoyle: 4 - Dealt relatively well with the pace of List, struggled against Norris' strength

Declan Drysdale: 4.5 - Won his headers and was all right with the ball at his feet

Greg Taylor: 3.5 - List's pace caused him trouble

Jack Iredale: 3.5- Smith had him under control all game, subbed for a mpre attacking Dunk

Luke Hannant: 4 - Looked nervy at times but overall good performance

Paul Digby: 3 - Looked behind the pace, slow to read the game, very poor performance

Hiram Boateng: 4.5- Powerful, energetic, missed that final ball

Wes Hoolahan: 4 - Created some good openings, weak in the challenge, some poor crosses

Paul Mullin: 2- The man who has a stand named after him thoroughly disappointed, in Vancooten's and Prosser's pocket, moaned at the referee all game, lazy

Joe Ironside: 3 - Was starved of chances and quality crosses which he thrives of

Substitutions:

Tracey: 4

May: 4.5

Dunk: 4

O'Neil: 4
