Chester FC player ratings:

Grant Shenton: Relatively quiet night and not overly extended by York’s two on-target attempts. 6/10

Steve Howson: Equally as determined as his central-defensive partner to keep Ironside quiet. 7

Simon Grand: Took care of his duties at the back without really venturing forward. 7

Dan Mooney: On the front foot from the first whistle and comfortably visitors’ best attacker . 8

Gary Roberts: Demonstrated his experience by never straying out of position. 7

Gary Stopforth: Plugged away on return from injury. 6
