Salisu Abdullahi goes up and wins it — 7.55
A defender on the scoresheet, which happens rarely enough that everybody in the ground remembers who took the corner. 1 for him, and a mark of 7.55 for the rest of it.

Both jobs done by Obed Ponkap — 6.93
A midfielder is measured on whether the team functions when he is on the pitch, which is nearly impossible to see and completely obvious in retrospect. 10 actions, 6.93, and a manager who will not be substituting him again in a hurry.
In brief
