GRANT SHENTON: A spectator for most of the game and had very little to do apart from twice pick the ball out of the net. 6/10

BRADLEY JACKSON: On the front foot for most of the game and enjoyed plenty of space down the wing. 7

MATTY WATERS: Had a brilliant first half but made an error on Alfreton's first goal which was costly. 6

STEVE HOWSON: As reliable as ever in what was probably his last game for Chester. 7

SIMON GRAND: Slightly untidy performance from the centre back who struggled with the pace of Alfreton's attacks. 5

SCOTT BURTON: Outstanding all afternoon and his best game for Chester since returning from injury. 8

GARY ROBERTS: A good foil for Burton and did plenty of the heavy lifting on midfield. 7

ANTHONY DUDLEY: Showed some great touches in an around the box but wasted some good opportunities. 6

CRAIG MAHON: Full of direct running in the first half and kept the Alfreton defence busy with his dribbling. 7

AKWASI ASANTE: Another smart finish for his ninth goal in 11 games but faded in the second half. 7

GEORGE WARING: Good performance from the striker who won plenty in the air and on the ground and took his goal well. 7

SUBSTITUTES:

IWAN MURRAY: Showed a willingness to get forward and put in one crunching tackle to win the ball. 6
