Championship
Sunderland - Tyias Browning and Brendan Galloway both played full match in 1-1 home draw with Derby County
OS Match Report
"Instead, they fell behind as Derby delivered a sucker punch with their opening attack. Johnny Russell was the architect and he beat Brendan Galloway all ends up, diving down the right before flashing the ball across goal where Johnson rifled it through the crowd and into the net."
"And they never looked back, with Derby’s man dangerman, Russell, thwarted by Galloway who grew in confidence as the game progressed."
"Jason Steele enjoyed a solid competitive debut between the sticks and was scarcely troubled following Johnson’s opener, with Ty Browning marshalling the back four and displaying a maturity beyond his years."

5' Bright start to the game by #SAFC. Nice overlap from Galloway sees him fire just wide before Vaughan has a shot diverted for a corner
(Some club Twitter feeds are better than others!)
Fan comments
"Galloway got turned by a hard working quality player ( for this league ), the ball then went through line's legs and ndong let the scorer get away from him. All of this at speed not subbuteo speed."
"Pity galloway is a cross with agboola and frank gray. Woeful."
"Galloway - 7, looks strong, keen and lively"
"Browning - 6, OK"
"Galloway cost us a goal ffs."
"Browning - 6 - better than last week, heading is a bit suspect"
"Galloway - 5 - his fault for the goal"
"browning 7 solid"
"galloway bit nervy at fault for goal 6"
"Galloway - 5, at fault for the goal, got better and battled back at the end"
"Browning - 7, no mistakes, looked physical and solid"
"Galloway was at fault for the goal and was switching off in defence all game."
"Galloway - pacy but raw - 5"
"Browning - raw but clearly has ability - 6"
Nottingham Forest - Kieran Dowell started on bench and came on in 59th minute of 1-0 home win over Millwall
OS Match Report
"The introduction of Kieran Dowell for his first appearance in a red shirt added some impetus to the Forest attack, linking up well with Zach Clough on a couple of occasions to come close to doubling the advantage."
Twitter stuff
75' #NFFC 1-0 Millwall: Superb one-two between Kieran Dowell and Zach Clough but the latter's shot is blocked away by Millwall.
84' #NFFC 1-0 Millwall: Kieran Dowell comes inches away from making it 2-0 but his shot whistles past the right-hand post.
89' #NFFC 1-0 Millwall: George Saville is shown a yellow card for a high challenge on Kieran Dowell.
Fan comments
"Dowell looked very comfortable on the ball and looked to make an impression. I've no doubt he'll be an asset for us this season."
"Dowell looked very lively in the short time he had on the pitch and will be a great option."
"You remember that time we had Aaron Ramsey on loan and you could see instantly that he was a different class...
Step forward Kieran Dowell. Came on at about 60 mins and the game changed significantly. Everything constructive went through him. Such a deft touch and silky skills. My Everton friends assure me we've temporarily l, at least, stolen a gem from them. I agree. Not sure if you play him on his own or with Clough but I think the dynamism that our midfield hasn't got is solved with this chap. An excellent debut for me."
"Very good technically. Will need to adapt very quickly to physical demands of the championship because he was dispossessed a lot for his short cameo.Will be played in behind striker in my opinion. Clough on the bench after another game in which he contributed nothing."
"I think Dowell bought out the best in Clough when he came on, looked like a different player all together. Would be interesting to see them both start"
"Dowell - 7/10. Looked a fantastic talent - bullied off the ball a few times but very bright and talented"
