5. Reece James 7
At fault for Hull’s second after letting Wilks get away from him to head the ball, he was neat and tidy afterwards and was a big player in the attacking threat shown after the break, as Rovers threatened regularly down the left. His goal wasn’t too bad either. Photo: AHPIX Ltd
6. Matt Smith 8
A strong performer throughout for Rovers. He battled hard and got them on the front foot in the first half. After the break, he was allowed to push further forward, drawing the attention of the opposition and playing short, sharp passes to keep Rovers on the front foot. Photo: AHPIX Ltd
7. Madger Gomes 4
Ineffective for so much of the first half. He seemed to struggle with where he should be positioned off the ball and struggled to make an impact in possession. Photo: AHPIX Ltd
8. Jon Taylor 7
A lively presence throughout his time on the pitch. He struggled to be effective in the first half but grew in stature and was a real nuisance around the box after the break. Photo: AHPIX Ltd
