The youngster replaced Romeo Lavia in the 78th minute, and Rosenior admitted afterwards he was delighted to see him make his debut.
“I was so happy for Ryan,” he told his post match press conference. “I had the pleasure of watching him in the FA Youth Cup game maybe six weeks ago. I know a lot about the academy.
