9. Chris Maguire
A wonderful pass to release McNulty for the opener. Movement was excellent to begin but very fortunate that some sloppy passes in dangerous areas did not cost his team. Peripheral in the second half, though was not playing in a typical central position. 6 Photo: Ian Horrocks
10. Marc McNulty
Boosted his ever-growing reputation with another lively performance. Scored a good early goal, crashed one off the bar and laid on the third for Wyke. Very good. 8 Photo: Ian Horrocks
11. Will Grigg
Struggled to retain the ball in the second half after a much brighter opening 45. Unlucky that a couple of instinctive efforts didn’t produce a much-needed goal. 6 Photo: Ian Horrocks
12. Aiden McGeady
A defining intervention from the bench, bending the game to his will. An excellent goal and real urgency when his team needed it. Good signs ahead of Portsmouth clash. 7 Photo: Ian Horrocks
