Comments:

Impalex: “Tom Pett. I thought he was masterful.”

Stevie_imp: “Anderson just pipped Tom Pett. He really was on fire, especially in the first half. Topped things off with a cracking goal.”

hulloutpost: “Pett for his 90-minute contribution across different roles although Anderson was on fire early on and Akinde shone before being subbed.”

berksimps: “Pett, tips the vote for his skill on the ball, accurate passing, and getting forward to receive Akinde’s knockdown and score a goal.”

PerthImp: “Freck for me. Dominated the midfield, particularly 1st half where he constantly made himself available for the ball all over the pitch. 2nd half he got stuck in for the defensive stuff when the going got tough. Captain’s role – led by example.”
