Colchester United lost to Mansfield Town in League Two

The U's finished 20th in League Two, after goals from Riley Harbottle and James Gale gave the Stags victory, at the JobServe Community Stadium.

Here are the Gazette player ratings, after Colchester's campaign ended in a home loss.

TOM SMITH 6

Pulled off some good saves in the first half but could do little to prevent Mansfield’s goals

WILL GREENIDGE 6

Seemed to enjoy his battle with Quinn after being utilised at right-back; unlucky not to score with an overhead effort

LUKE CHAMBERS 6

U’s skipper looked solid but will be disappointed with goals conceded

TOM DALLISON 6

Generally performed well on first start since mid-January. Booked

CONNOR HALL 7

Was his usual efficient self after moving to left-back as part of flat back four; was replaced just after the hour due to injury

ARTHUR READ 7

U’s man of the match. Continued from his fine performance at Doncaster with another fine display.

MARLEY MARSHALL MIRANDA 6

Made some key midfield challenges on first start since November 1. Booked

JAYDEN FEVRIER 7

Young winger produced some eye-catching moments on his first-ever EFL start

NOAH CHILVERS 6

Tried hard to make things happen on what was a largely frustrating day for U’s

ALEX NEWBY 6

Went close with a decent effort early on after making first U’s start since March 25

JOHN AKINDE 6

Was unlucky to see an effort clatter the crossbar before going off with concussion

Did his fair share of defensive work in what could be his farewell U’s appearance
