More from Joey Barton on BT Sport: "I thought Ched Evans was outstanding and set the tone for us. He showed the real experience in his game and set a platform for the team.

"We knew we had to score first and the key for us was making sure we were professional. We came here to get into the next round of the hat.

On James Wallace's injury in the warm-up: "He felt his calf stiffening up but when we found out, we said it's a heavy pitch and we want him to be fit for the rest of the season.

"It was a precaution as we knew we had enough quality on the bench."
