MATCH RATING
Entertainment 6
NEAL: Followed up a terrific early save by showing confident handling and a safe pair of hands yet again 7
DUFFY: Recovered from a first-half head injury to produce a string of timely tackles and clearances in one of his best performances for the club 8
PURSE: It's no coincidence that Vale's clean sheet record has improved since the veteran defender has been part of the back four 7
McCOMBE: Bounced back from a forgivably shaky start to last the full 90 minutes on a welcome return from his injury lay-off 6
JONES: Another forward-running display from the left-back who has made quite an impression since his arrival last month 7
MYRIE-WILLIAMS: Got over being announced to the crowd as 'Marie Williams' by keeping his markers fully occupied all afternoon 6
BURGE: A busy effort in the thick of the action, never overlooked his defensive duties and barely deserved a first-half caution 6
LOFT: Captain led by example with an impressive effort full of industry and determination. Also claimed a crucial assist for the goal 7
VINCENT: The winger summed up another indifferent day at the office by producing an air shot when clean through. Terrible pitches aren't helping his style 5
ANDREW: Visibly grew in confidence after deflecting in his first goal for the club and went close twice more after the break 7
POPE: Plenty of hard work in key areas, but looked more likely to provide an assist rather than end his rare dry spell in front of goal 7
SUBSTITUTES
MORSY (for Burge, 66): Keen to make an impression and quick to make his presence felt in the middle of the park 6
Subs not used: Taylor, Birchall, Dodds, Shuker, Yates, Boot.
TORQUAY UNITED: Poke, Leadbitter, Downes (MacDonald, 25) Saah, Nicholson, Jarvis, Easton, Mansell, Bodin (Macklin, 68), Benyon, Howe. Subs not used: Lathrope, Rice, Cruise, Yeoman, Thompson.
