Tommy Simkin - 7

Helpless - Produced two good saves to deny Kabonga Tshimanga in the second half and had little chance of stopping Joel Cotterill's winner with his finish taking a telling deflection.

Oisin McEntee - 6

Difficult - Posed an aerial threat on set pieces but struggled to cope with the trickery of Tshimanga along with Connor Barrett down Swindon's left.

David Okagbue - 7

Standout - A standout on a poor afternoon. Stuck out a vital leg to stop Joel McGregor's cross from finding Harry Smith, before intervening in the nick of time with Cotterill bearing down on a goal before the break.

Taylor Allen - 6

Struggled - Kicked a number of his clearances into touch and failed to track Cotterill's run into the box for Swindon's winner.

Brandon Comley - 7
