MATCH RATING

Entertainment 7

NEAL: No difficulty in dealing with Tranmere's first-half offerings and little to do in the second either – but was cool when called upon 7

DUFFY: A comfortable fit down the right side, never looked troubled 7

LOFT: Occasionally caught up field as he shows eagerness to join in Vale's attacks at every opportunity, but generally solid at the back as well as offering good service going forward 7

McCOMBE: Another good showing as he kept a lid on highly-rated Jake Cassidy 7

McDONALD: Stronger in the air and solid enough alongside McCombe 7

SHUKER: Looks at home in the middle of midfield as he keeps things moving along against his former club 7

MYRIE-WILLIAMS: A good top wing display as he gave Bakayogo a torrid time, capped with a 30-yard screamer into the top corner 9

MORSY: Valuable contribution at both ends of the park before making way for Burge 7

DODDS: Energetic display and increasingly eager to shoot if given half a chance 7

POPE: Typically industrious performance leading the line, helping lay off chances for others 7

VINCENT: Loves speeding down the left flank and gaining confidence with every game. First goal cannot be far away 7

SUBSTITUTES:

BURGE (for Morsy, 56): Slotted in nicely in the middle of midfield for some valuable pitch time 6

WILLIAMSON (for Dodds, 70): Fresh legs for Dodds helped keep Tranmere on the back foot 6

YATES (for Duffy, 70): Desperately eager to prove himself after a spell on the bench and his driving run set up Vale's second 7

Not used: Taylor, Yates, Williamson, Lloyd.

TRANMERE: Fon Williams, Holmes (Kay, 46), Thompson (Stockton, 64), Cassidy, McGurk, Harrison, Bakayogo, Power (Kirby, 75), Gibson, Bell-Baggie, Golobart. Not used: McChrystal, Mooney.
