SHELL-SHOCKED City were thumped 5-1 by leaders Mansfield in a game that was effectively done and dusted inside 20 minutes.

T&A chief sports writer SIMON PARKER was at a stunned Valley Parade yesterday and provides the match stats and his player ratings.

MAN OF THE MATCH

Hard to think of too many contenders but Kevin McDonald did bring a little bit of calm to the chaos when he came on after Liam Ridehalgh was subbed early.

MOMENT OF THE MATCH

Maybe if Tyler Smith had got something on that Lewis Richards cross at 0-0, it might have been a different story. But Mansfield quickly blew away any home hope.

MOAN OF THE MATCH

Where do you start? The team looked all over the shop and were wide open defensively. You can’t blame those fans who jacked it in at half-time and headed home.

TACTICS

City made two changes from the Forest Green defeat – with Andy Cook and Brad Halliday dropping to the bench.

Tyler Smith replaced Cook up front with Jamie Walker playing in a central-midfield role in his first start since getting injured at Doncaster before Christmas.

Alex Gilliead moved to right wing-back in Halliday’s absence.
