In an ideal world, Yoro’s contribution would have produced all three points, but his effort was still crucial in securing our first point of the new season – not only in front of goal but at the other end of the pitch, too.
The 19-year-old recorded the most tackles of any player on the pitch (2), including a perfectly timed sliding challenge on Joshua King as the last man to prevent the young midfielder going one-on-one with Altay Bayindir.
Yoro was recognised by fans for his actions across the field, and was voted our star man on the day with 38 per cent in our post-match poll.
Matheus Cunha came in second with 28 per cent, the Brazilian hitting the woodwork once and causing the Cottagers’ defence a headache all afternoon, with Mbeumo also noted for his hand in the goal, taking third place with seven per cent of the vote.
