Middlesbrough got back to winning ways with a 2-0 win over West Brom at the Riverside - but who stood out for Michael Carrick’s side?
The hosts opened the scoring just before the hour mark when Hayden Hackney’s low shot from distance beat goalkeeper Alex Palmer.
Boro then doubled their lead as Ben Doak curled an excellent effort into the top corner seven minutes from time. Here’s how each player fared:
