Loan Watch: Saliba key in derby win

We had four players in action for their loan clubs over the past weekend.

Scroll down to find out how they fared:

William Saliba played the full 90 minutes and kept a clean sheet as Saint-Etienne won 1-0 against rivals Lyon. The victory came in dramatic fashion, with Robert Beric scoring a 90th-minute winner at Stade Geoffroy-Guichard.

 

Eddie Nketiah came on in the 62nd minute as Leeds lost 2-1 at Millwall. Jed Wallace scored a penalty in the 16th minute to give the hosts the lead, before Tom Bradshaw doubled their advantage moments before half-time. Ezjan Alioski scored immediately after the restart, but Leeds couldn't find an equaliser.

 

Deyan Iliev played the full 90 minutes as Sered lost 1-0 at Zilina. Jan Bernat scored the game's only goal.

 

Ben Sheaf played the entirety of Doncaster's 2-1 home defeat by Portsmouth. Gareth Evans gave Pompey the lead on the hour mark, before Reece James looked to have shared the points with his 82nd-minute equaliser. However, Ellis Harrison struck in added time to take all three points for the visitors.

 

Jordi Osei-Tutu was an unused substitute in Bochum's 3-2 win at Heidenheim.

 

Mohamed Elneny and Henrikh Mkhitaryan did not feature for Besiktas and Roma.
