Ince heroics in vain

A superb display from Clayton Ince restricted Peterborough to a narrow 1-0 win at home to Walsall.

Saddlers keeper frustrates Posh

A superb display from goalkeeper Clayton Ince spared managerless Walsall a heavy defeat as Peterborough had to settle for a 1-0 win at London Road. The Trinidad and Tobago international was beaten by Chris Whelpdale after just six minutes but then produced a catalogue of fine saves to make sure the Saddlers didn't sink without trace. Whelpdale was on hand to prod home from close range after Craig Mackail-Smith had flicked a long Charlie Lee throw into his path but proved the only player able to beat Ince. The Walsall shot-stopper prevented Aaron Mclean and George Boyd doubling the home side's lead before the interval and he was in even better form after the break. Ince deflected a Boyd drive against an upright moments after the restart before blocking from Mackail-Smith when the home striker was clean through on goal. Walsall, under the control of caretaker boss John Schofield, were rarely seen as an attacking force. Mark Bradley fizzed a first-half volley straight at Posh goalkeeper Joe Lewis before screwing a second-half opportunity across the face of goal.
