Second half side looks a lot sharper and more energetic than the first half side. Good anticipation and pressure in the box from Sterling-James forced the own goal to equalise.
1-2 56 mins: Maynard does well on the right and squares across the face of goal to Rose who knocks into an empty net from 3 yards. Good play between the two strikers.
