Then Gore
The midfielder was credited with another 90 minutes as Rotherham United drew 2-2 with Burton Albion in League One.
He completed 89% of his passes and had 71 touches of the ball.
Gore also did important defensive work, making two interceptions, one clearance and blocking two shots on goal.
The young midfielder also won four ground matches and two aerial matches in the encounter.
Radek Vitek
The Czech goalkeeper could not prevent his Bristol City team from sliding to a second defeat in a row.
They lost 0-1 at home to Blackburn Rovers, as their play-off ambitions had run into some trouble.
Vitek made four stops in the match, with two coming from the penalty area. One of these was a clever stop to his right after an impressive volley from the Rovers striker.
He also made two successful run-outs and completed three clearances in the match.
Vitek also won his only ground duel, but could not stop Yuki Ohashi’s close-range attack just on the edge of half-time.
