Here's how our Hartlepool United writer rated the Pools players following their FA Trophy exit. Do you agree?

9. Roshaun Mathurin: 7
One poor pass that went straight out of play, but other than that a good evening's work from the Crystal Palace loanee. Has been starved of opportunities of late but his teammates often sing his praises and he reminded Pools fans of his impressive technical ability. Linked up well with Mancini and forced a decent save from Jas Singh at the start of the second half. Did his case for selection no harm whatsoever. Photo: Frank Reid

10. Kazenga LuaLua: 5
A 34th birthday to forget. Struggled to get involved in the game and missed his side's third penalty in the shootout. Photo: Frank Reid

11. Gary Madine: 6
Scored his second goal in two games and his movement in the box is impressive. Apart from the goal, wasn't his best night. Struggled to hold the ball up and gave away a handful of needless fouls in the first half. Fired a very poor penalty well over the bar in the shootout. Will be pleased to have rediscovered his goalscoring touch but will need to do more if he's to challenge Mani Dieservuwe for his place in the side. Photo: Frank Reid

12. Luke Waterfall: 6
Replaced Parkes at half time and organised the defence well. His lack of pace was exposed once and he looked like he might give away a penalty but he did well not to commit to a challenge and Pools survived. Photo: Frank Reid
