1 key pass, 87% pass success, 3 clearances: Jayce Fitzgerald makes positive impact from bench in League Two

During Manchester United's challenging season, loanees Jayce Fitzgerald, Chido Obi, and Finlay McAllister have contributed positively from the bench. Fitzgerald, playing for Rotherham United against Fleetwood Town, made a significant impact despite starting on the bench. He completed one key pass and maintained an impressive 87% pass success rate.

Additionally, Fitzgerald attempted two shots on goal, although neither were successful. He completed two dribbles and made three clearances during the match. Fitzgerald also secured two ground duels, demonstrating his defensive capabilities.

Chido Obi, playing for Willem II, had a quiet afternoon in their 2-3 loss to Sparta Rotterdam. The Danish striker came on as a substitute in the final nine minutes and did not register any shots, key passes, or win a duel. His stats were minimal with only two touches of the ball during his time on the pitch.

Radcliffe's Finlay McAllister scored a goal with a header from a corner kick, contributing to a 2-0 victory over Southport. Despite being the only one of the three to score, McAllister's overall performance was overshadowed by Fitzgerald's and Obi's positive contributions off the bench.
