Starters

Butland - 8 - couldn’t do nothing with the goals but made a couple huge stops to prevent any nerves

Tavernier - 5 - steady evening, didnt offer much going forward and didn’t do much wrong defensively either

Djiga - 5 - slight fault for the 1st goal ball watching instead of following his man who scored but apart from that didn’t do much wrong

Souttar - 4 - defended the box well for the most part but a few times ball watching and leaving the ball in dangerous areas

Jefte - 3 - very poor evening, fault for the 1st goal ball watching, poor on the ball and put us under pressure a couple of times

Cameron - 6 - anonymous in the 1st half but picked up in the 2nd half and pops up with the goal to settle the nerves in the 2nd

Raskin - 5 - worked hard, disrupted play but if he wants to play as a 6 he needs to be much better on the ball to control games

Diomande - 4 - started well for the first 20 then had a very quiet evening, lost the ball a few times in dangerous areas and put us under pressure but pops up with a good run and sets up our goal

Gassama - 5 - tried too do to much at times, taking too many touches instead of just taking the easy option

Dessers - 4 - poor evening, struggled to hold the ball up and was getting rag-dolled by the Plzen defender, subbed off injured and then we looked slightly better afterwards

Antman - 5 - worked hard, few good balls across goal but no one was there to get on the end of them

Subs

Danilo - 5 - looked bright when he came on, held the ball up and linked it well at times but nothing came off for him in the box

Dowell - 4 - didn’t do much when he came on

Rothwell - 3 - at fault for the 2nd goal not tracking his man who scores

Cortes & Bajrami - 4 - only seen 5/10 minutes of action, not enough time to make any impact
