Sheffield Wednesday manager Steve Bruce has heaped praise on Rolando Aarons.

The left-back has made eight appearances for the Owls since joining on loan from Newcastle United on deadline day.

Speaking after the game, Bruce told BBC Sheffield: "Rolando, who's had a real big impact on us, has capped off a memorable night for him because I thought he was terrific in the second half in particular.

"His career seemed to have fallen off the cliff a little bit, so you blow him a little bit of confidence, put an arm around his shoulder and remind him what a good player he was - which I remember when he first burst onto the scene.

"I'm delighted because he's given us something we haven't got - he's got a little trick, he's quick, and he's energetic and young and I'm delighted for him because he's a really, really good kid.

"All this nonsense written about him, I've not seen it. He's done great since he walked through the door."
