Blackpool assistant makes a case for the defence

Here's how Blackpool's players rated:

Mark Howard - 7

Made a couple of vital stops in the first half to keep Scunthorpe at bay as Pool kept another clean sheet.

Michael Nottingham - 6

Came close with a first-half header after being brought in to replace the injured Marc Bola. Added more height and physicality.

Donervon Daniels - 6

Turned too easily on a couple of occasions but otherwise solid in the centre of defence, winning most of his aerial battles.

Curtis Tilt - 6

Produced a trademark run out from the back to help set up Blackpool’s opener and kept things tight at the back.

Ollie Turton - 7

Did well in an unfamiliar position after being moved to left back and provided the cross for Blackpool’s goal.

Jay Spearing - 6

Helped Blackpool clean another clean sheet by clearing a Scunthor header off the line in the first half.

Callum Guy - 6

Had a chance to double Blackpool’s lead at the start of the second half but produced a weak effort.

Jordan Thompson - 6

Looked a little tired and was replaced after 60 minutes. His international break double header seems to have taken its toll.

Liam Feeney - 6

Had little impact on the game on his return to the side. Undoubtedly has the quality but needs to show it.

Nathan Delfouneso - 6

Got little change out of the Scunthorpe full back. Enjoyed a couple of runs but otherwise quiet.

Armand Gnanduillet - 7

Bagged his fourth goal of the season with a clinical first-time finish. Held the ball up well and won flick ons.

Subs used

For Feeney, 77

Made some important defensive clearances as Blackpool held on for the win in the final stages.

For Gnanduillet, 81

Went close to grabbing a second for Pool as he sent a curling effort just wide of the Scunthorpe goal.
