Declan Rice opened the scoring with a thumping, close-range finish in north London. DAVID RAYA: 6.5. Quiet night in terms of saves, but had to stay alert around his box because of the potential of counter-attacks. JURRIEN TIMBER: 6. Some good drives into threatening areas, but occasionally panicked at the back. Dispossessed on 35 minutes which could have been costly.

JAKUB KIWIOR: 6. Nervy but got through. Tackled at the back after 33 minutes which presented the opposition with a chance. Provided cover when required. GABRIEL: 7. Came close to scoring a few times with his head from corners. Solid at the back and key to the clean sheet.
