The 22-year-old nearly won a penalty for his side late in the game.
Glasner stated that the midfielder’s physicality helped his side after his introduction.
“It was the same with Uche at the end, I thought he could help us in having a little bit more physicality in our attack,” Glasner told the club’s official website.
” He was great, he had a big chance as well. I think we could have got a penalty in this situation.”
