GUO FOR WALT’S WOLVES
more week! My players played with their mind, their heart and their courage. In the second half we were amazing.”
Zenga’s punishing training regime has meant none of his players have had a day off since the start of the season.
But their superior fitness told as they overran Blues in the second half, helped by Storer seeing red after only being on the pitch for six minutes as a substitute.
Storer shoved his head into the face of defender Kortney Hause and booted an advertising board as he left the pitch.
Rowett said: “I want my players to show passion and commitment, but I can’t condone that, and what he did as he left the pitch is something I’m not proud of either. “He’s lost his head and let the group down.
“He’s an explosive lad, but he is going to have to learn.”
Everything had started so well for Rowett with his new £2million striker Che Adams opening the scoring 24 minutes into his debut with a Possession 47% 53% Shots On Target 7 7 Shots Off Target 3 9 Blocked Shots 4 3 Corners 10 12 Fouls Conceded 7 15 Offsides 0 1 Yellow Cards 1 1 Red Cards 1 0 cool finish from Stephen Gleeson’s cross. Joe Mason made up for fluffing a first-half chance with a brilliant turn and finish two minutes after the restart.
Matt Doherty’s header then bounced back off Tomasz Kuszczak for Danny Batth to smash home.
And Jon Bodvarsson grabbed a second goal for his new club with another excellent finish late on.
