After tough first half, he and others finally got on top in periods of the second half6/10

Luke Murphy

Under the cosh before break, left passing backwards, but better after interval 6/10

Mixed day. Good moments and strong runs were let down by misplaced passes 5/10

Mustapha Carayol

Very quiet, largely because he hardly got ball. Spent a lot of time trying to win it 5/10
