He came on for the final 30 minutes of the match but failed to have any shots on goal. He also failed to complete any key passes or crosses in the match.
Wheatley did win a total of three duels, though, as he helped out in defence.

He completed two dribbles and a key pass during his time on the pitch.
Hojlund was impressive physically, though, winning seven duels in total.
