9. Tyler Roberts - 6
Had a longer run out after replacing Moriah-Welsh on 69 minutes, as he continues his return from injury. Looked quite sharp and took up some good positions off the front three as Stags chased the game, but never got an opportunity. Photo: UGC
10. Jon Russell - 6
Worked well with Reed in the first half to give Stags control and got in some decent tackles to win the ball back and break up play. Photo: UGC
11. Regan Hendry - 6
Replaced Russell on 69 minutes. Ticked the attacks over from centre-mid in the closing stages as Stags pushed more men forward, but didn’t really impact the game in the way he would have hoped. Photo: UGC
12. Frazer Blake-Tracy - 4
The usually dependable defender had somewhat of a torrid afternoon throughout. Looked off the pace from the start with games maybe catching up with him. Gave the ball away far too easily to leave Stags badly exposed for the first goal. Was beaten all ends up by Joe Taylor in giving away the penalty which cost Mansfield the game. Photo: Chris Holloway
