Here's how The Lancashire Telegraph scored the players' performances, with a six representing par for the course.
BALAZS TOTH - 8
Made a phenomenal reflex save to keep out Heggebo from close range. As good as scoring a goal.
RYAN ALEBIOSU - 6
Looked tired with a couple of wayward touches. Understandable given the schedule.
TOM ATCHESON - 7
Adapted well to a back four in the second half. A big ask for a young player but he coped well.
SCOTT WHARTON - 6
It was a big boost to have him available but he lasted 45 minutes. Taken off after a booking and probably with a concern over his fitness.
SEAN MCLOUGHLIN - 7
Didn't put a foot wrong against either of West Brom's number nines.
HARRY PICKERING - 6
Another who was carded in the opening 45 minutes and so O'Neill made the call to replace him.
ADAM FORSHAW - 7
Played a few decent passes from deep but wasn't as heavily involved as recent games.
MOUSSA BARADJI - 7
Another good performance. Has looked more mobile in the last two, winning more tackles.
RYOYA MORISHITA - 7
Looked the most likely to create a big chance in the second half. It just wouldn't quite fall for a team-mate.
TODD CANTWELL - 6
Set-pieces were again poor. Worked hard and had some nice touches but didn't happen for him.
YUKI OHASHI - 6
Ran himself into the ground again but didn't have any real chances at goal.
SUBSTITUTES:
YURI RIBEIRO (PICKERING, 45') - 6
Decent energy down the left after coming on. Didn't have many issues defensively.
MATHIAS JORGENSEN (WHARTON 45') - 6
Got into some good positions but final action wasn't right. Appeared to duck under a Morishita cross which was odd.
DAPO AFOLAYAN (CANTWELL, 75') - 6
On as a late change on the left.
UNUSED SUBSTITUTES: Michalski, Montgomery, Tavares, Gardner-Hickman, De Neve, Redmond.
