ROVERS reporter Rich Sharpe hands out his player ratings after the 0-0 draw with Wolves at Molineux.

Man of the match: Darragh Lenihan 8

Was faultless in the air all afternoon, and was equally sound on the floor in what was a welcome return to fitness for the Irishman.

Came the closest to breaking the deadlock as his first-half header from a Craig Conway set play flashed just wide of the post.

Made one terrific last-ditch tackle to deny Morgan Gibbs-White late in the second half to preserve Rovers’ clean sheet.

David Raya 7

Didn’t have a shot to save until the 92nd minute, but was alert throughout, and his distribution was excellent.

Elliott Ward 6

Somewhat fortunate to not give a spot-kick away as he challenged Bodvardson.  Comfortable otherwise in the middle of a back three.

Charlie Mulgrew 7

Brought a composure to the Rovers back three on his return to the side.  Two second half corners threatened to create an opening.

Ryan Nyambe 7

You can’t knock his determination or effort, as he worked tirelessly down the right.  However, let down time and again by his final ball.

Jason Lowe 5

First half cross created an opening for Conway, but lacked any real creativity thereafter.  Booked for a late tackle on George Saville.

Danny Guthrie 5

Some neat passes in the first half, but most of them lacked penetration. Got away with a few niggling fouls before his second half yellow card.

Derrick Williams 5

One of the many Rovers to get in to good positions, without taking advantage.  Had a weak shot saved in the second period.

Elliott Bennett 6

Had one of Rovers’ two attempts on target as his second half free-kick was saved by Lonergan.  Put in a good shift, and was unfortunate to be sacrificed.

Craig Conway 6

A bright start saw him go close with a half-volley, and a free-kick was headed just wide by Lenihan.  Drifted out of the game before his departure.

Sam Gallagher 6

Ploughed a lune furrow up front, and too often found himself isolated.  Put in plenty of work, but never looked like breaking the deadlock.
