Conrad Logan 6
Marshalled his defence with vocal authority. Little to do apart from picking the ball out of his net.
Dom Bernard 5
Defended stoutly, but few opportunities to drive forward.
Liam Kitching 6
Not at his imperious best today.
Farrend Rawson 6
A standout performer this season, but not his usual dominant self. His clearing header led to the sumptuous Macclesfield winner.
Nathan McGinley 5
Offered a rare chance due to Joseph Mills crying off in the morning, but did little to suggest he’ll keep his place.
Ebo Adams 6
Ran out of ideas after a decent first half.
Carl Winchester 8
If the player of the season awards were handed out in January, then Rovers all-action midfielder would win hands down. Great strike for the opener.
Jevani Brown 5
Blew a chance to put Rovers 2-0 up before the break and tweaked his hamstring in the process.
Rob Hall 5
Quiet debut and clearly looked rusty after lack of competitive action, but more to come from the Oxford United loanee.
Odin Bailey 7
Decent debut from the Birmingham City loanee. He gave it his best shot and looked more of a threat when moved into a central position. Played his part in Rovers’ opener.
Josh March 5
Huffed and puffed. His weak spot-kick after the break proved to be the pivotal moment of the match,
Subs
Junior Mondal 5 (for Brown 28)
Afforded an early opportunity to put his stamp on the game, but was largely ineffective.
Aaron Collins 7 (for Hall 65)
Lively cameo and his run led to Macclesfield’s red card.
Matty Stevens (for Josh March 88)
*Subs must play 15 minutes to get a mark.
