SAM WALKER 8

Denied Hughes in the first half and a made a series of fine stops after the break.

RYAN JACKSON 7

Got forward well down the right and his long throws posed a problem.

TOM EASTMAN 7

Had a solid game but could do little about Accrington’s goal. Booked.

LUKE PROSSER 7

U’s skipper made some key blocks and gave everything for the cause.

KANE VINCENT-YOUNG 7

Had another solid game and made all the right decisions at left-back.

DREY WRIGHT 8

U’s man of the match. Was unlucky not to score and worked tirelessly.

BRANDON COMLEY 6

Ex-QPR midfielder didn’t have as big an impact on the game as he did at Forest Green.

BEN STEVENSON 6

Had a decent game but was guilty of surrendering possession for Stanley winner.

COURTNEY SENIOR 6

Gave Accrington problems at times and went close with a long-range effort.

SAMMIE SZMODICS 6

Was his usual hard-working self but was well marshalled by Stanley’s defence.

MIKAEL MANDRON 7

Was impressive in the first half at both ends of the pitch but seldom had a sight of goal.
