Stevenage are relatively new EFL opponents for Stags, because although they’ve met in almost every season over the last ten years, it was only 2015 when they played each other for the first time at One Call Stadium, having previously only met in what is now the National League.
Stags won 1-0 thanks to Reggie Lambe’s second-half strike on February 7.
Here, we look at who was in Mansfield’s squad that day and where their careers eventually took them.
