Note: In parentheses are Bild ratings (scale: 6-1, 6-low, 1-high).
With the exception of Hoppe, Kicker's ratings this week beg to differ - significantly in Sargent's case: Adams 3.5; Brooks 3; Hoppe 5; Richards 2.5; Sargent 4.5.
Adams played a very solid match, and not shown here is his assist on the second goal through some strong pressing and winning the ball back in the opponent's box.
