Made some big saves at some crucial moments in the game. Could tell how much it meant when he ran the length of the pitch to celebrate the fourth. Photo: CameraSport - Dave Howarth

. Callum Connolly - 7/10
Put in a real shift. Had a tricky player to deal with in Alvaro Fernandez but stuck to his task well. Fortunate to get away with a few fouls. Photo: CameraSport - Dave Howarth

An afternoon to forget for the captain, who conceded the penalty and looked shaky in possession on his return. Photo: CameraSport - Stephen White

Managed the game well during the second-half on his return to the starting line-up. Fingers crossed he hasn’t picked up another injury. Photo: CameraSport - Dave Howarth

7. Kenny Dougall - 7/10
Did well again in a more advanced role. Can see the confidence returning as he had the courage to let fly from range on a couple of occasions. Photo: CameraSport - Stephen White

A goal and an assist, what else is there to say? Real moments of quality too, capped off with his celebration in front of the PNE fans. Photo: CameraSport - Stephen White

An utterly superb display on his first league start of the season. Terrified PNE with his pace and put the game to bed with a deserved goal at the end. Photo: CameraSport - Dave Howarth

10. Jerry Yates - 9/10
Like a new player. Continued his rich vein of form with his third brace in his last four games. Worked tirelessly for the cause once again. Photo: CameraSport - Dave Howarth

11. Gary Madine - 8/10
A crucial asset at both ends of the pitch with his aerial ability. Had a right battle with their centre halves and seemed to enjoy it. Photo: CameraSport - Stephen White

12. SUB: Sonny Carey - 8/10
For Bridcutt, 30 Played as if he had a point to prove. Had an extra yard of pace and heavily involved in Patino’s goal for the second. Photo: CameraSport - Stephen White
