Peterborough United delivered an impressive display for large parts against Blackpool but had to show guts not to let Blackpool get level in their eventual 4-2 win.

The Posh attackers impressed the most with Ephron Mason-Clark’s missed penalty being the only sour note but even he made up for that.

Posh are now nine league games unbeaten.

RATINGS KEY: 10-Brilliant, 9-Outstanding, 8-Very Good 7-Good, 6-Okay, 5-Poor, 4-Awful

A star performer for Posh and kept his head during the difficult period at 3-2. He was commanding in his box and came out well to claim to help relieve the pressure. Made two excellent saves in quick succession and got unlucky for the second after a deflection. 8.

Scored a brilliant free-kick to make the scores 2-0 and played a great pass to set up the move that led to the opener. Substituted though as the pressure poured on in the closing stages. 7.

Looks to have established a good link up with Katongo already, a key part in helping Posh get onto the front foot in the first half with his interceptions and passing. 7.

Some sloppy defending and marking in the backline made Posh's life more difficult than it should have been. 6.5.
