Nikolai Topor-Stanley - 6

Made some vital clearances but misjudged Appiah several times, and it was lucky that he was unable to capitalise.  

Ivan Vujica - 7

Great crosses and defensive work. Energetic moving forward and a superb one-two with Champness on the left touchline in an attacking move.

Jason Hoffman - 6

Tried to narrow his strikes but was too acute. Was fairly quiet throughout the match.

Steven Ugarkovic - 8

Made crucial clearances and performed a beautiful touch for Petratos to finish.

Wayne Brown - 5.5

Slid in determinedly to clear Pain’s dangerous passes for Hoole, but offered little else.

Dimitri Petratos - 7.5

Excellent passing and link-up with Ugarkovic in the second period. Lightning finish into the back of the net for the opener in the 83rd minute.

Andrew Nabbout - 6

Effort to Kennedy was saved comfortably. Wasn’t at his usual best.

Joey Champness - 7

Exciting instinct to attack, great little touches. Looked full of confidence but was unable to make a huge impact.

Subs

Patricio Rodriguez - 8

The Argentine performed beautifully on the ball. Made his announcement perfectly with an expert tackle and outstanding finish.

John Koutroumbis – N/A

Wasn’t on long enough for a fair rating.
