Matias Orozco made his first appearance in European football on Sunday.

The Colombian came on for the final half an hour of Castellon’s 2-0 win over Albacete in Spain’s second tier. Rodrigo Rego was also brought on, with the Portuguese winger making his third league appearance of the campaign.

James Beadle extended his unbeaten return to Birmingham to five games, as they drew 2-2 with Wolves. Amario Cozier-Duberry was an unused substitute in Middlesbrough’s 1-0 win over QPR, Libby Bance didn't get on for Leicester City in their 1-0 win over Sheffield United in WSL2, and nor did Grace McEwen for Nottingham Forest in their 1-1 draw with Ipswich Town.

Fuka Tsunoda played the full 90 minutes for Crystal Palace Women, as they beat Everton 1-0,

Despite scoring his first professional goal, it was a disappointing debut for Charlie Tasker as Rochdale lost 4-1 to Gillingham. Nils Ramming will also be unhappy to have not backed up his first clean sheet of the league campaign, as they put three past Shrewsbury without reply in midweek.

Our three players on loan at Leicester City - Harry Howell, Tommy Watson and Kamari Doyle - didn’t have an enjoyable Saturday afternoon as the Foxes were thumped 4-0 by Oxford United. Harry enjoyed a slightly more memorable midweek as he scored his first Leicester goal in their 2-0 win over Plymouth.
