Manager Darren Ferguson has hailed Gaby Zakuani's commitment after the defender played through the pain barrier against Southampton.
Zakuani, who has struggled for much of the campaign with a broken toe, was a surprise inclusion in the Posh team to face Southampton on Tuesday night three days after dislocating his shoulder.
Ferguson's side are guaranteed second tier football for another season despite losing 3-1 to the title chasing Saints.
The Posh boss said: "Gaby is a credit to his profession. He sets a fantastic example to young players. I had ruled him out, but the doctor telephoned me on Monday night to say Gaby wanted to play and of course I agreed."
