Marko Marosi 7

Made an important stop to deny Chris Martin in the first half and was largely untroubled on a day where football was not the winner.

Morgan Feeney 6

Stuck to his defensive task well as he always does, but as a centre-half playing at full-back he has his limitations in possession.

Similar to Feeney defended well and dealt with the challenge of Chris Martin comfortably but he too was a bit wasteful in possession.

Tom Flanagan 8

Head and shoulders above the rest on what was a difficult afternoon for Shrewsbury. He looked to play forward and always found a team-mate.

Mal Benning 6

A steady showing from Benning and Town certainly looked more threatening going down his side but the final ball needed more quality.

Carl Winchester 5

Uncharacteristically careless on the ball especially in the opening exchanges. Town were unable to win the midfield battle and get a foothold in the game.

Taylor Perry 6

The first half passed Perry by. He is busy and gets around the pitch well, but he would like to have more of an impact on the ball.

Tom Bayliss 5

Back in the team after missing Friday’s game through illness but was unable to have any impact on the clash.

Tunmise Sobowale 5

A rare opportunity for Sobowale on the right wing coming in for Tom Bloxham, but the winger was unable to take that chance and was taken off on the hour mark.

Aiden O’Brien 6

Hit the bar with a brilliant individual effort in the second half – Town’s only real sight at goal.

Dan Udoh 7

With Town’s forward players struggling to make an impact Udoh found himself isolated up front, but he caused Bristol problems after the break and was a real handful.

Subs

Tom Bloxham 5 (Sobowale 60), Jack Hinchy (Perry 75), Ryan Bowman (Bayliss 75), Roland Idowu (O’Brien 75)

Subs not used: Burgoyne, Sraha, Bennett.
