Conor Chaplin’s goal proved to be the difference at S6 as the Tractor Boys headed home with a narrow victory, but it could’ve been much more if it hadn’t been for Colombian goalkeeper, Devis Vasquez.
The shot-stopper was the best performer on a tough afternoon for the Owls that saw them fail to create a single decent opportunity, and the international break didn’t prove to be the catalyst that many had hoped it would.
Here are our ratings after another rough afternoon for Xisco’s Wednesday:
1. Devis Vasquez - 8
Was at no fault for the goal after being completely unsighted by the players in front of him, and made a number of strong saves to keep the score down - his stop from Harry Clarke was the pick of the bunch.
2. Callum Paterson - 5
As tireless a performance as you’d expect from the Scot, who bust a gut on numerous occasions in order to try and make things happen. Sadly, though, to no avail.
3. Liam Palmer - 5
Playing on the right side of defence, and captain in the absence of Bannan, Palmer was steady for the most part and tried to get forward on occasion, too.
4. Dominic Iorfa - 5
Had a steady start to the game in Wednesday’s defence and helped keep the visitors at bay before his early substitution due to injury before the half-hour mark.
