It wasn't a great game but you make it sound like neither team was playing for anything besides bragging rights. Neither of them have started the season well and desperately need to get back on track. Today's result won't make or break either of their seasons but both needed a win not just for the points but for the confidence boost.
And Jagielka's goal was brilliant.
