Mr. McConville did score a(nother) good goal, after some decisive attacking play from Pierro, but he's definitely not the bravest of players, and that was a poor example of ducking out of a challenge. Even jumping and missing the ball might have put off the York scorer. Fortunate it happened when it did and not with another ten minutes to go.
