Versatility is defined as ‘ability to adapt or be adapted to many different functions or activities’. Alternatively, you can insert the name Hakeem Odoffin and still reach the same outcome.
Your Mattress Online Man of the Match from Tuesday night’s hard-fought 2-2 draw with Sky Bet Championship high-flyers Ipswich Town has developed an uncanny knack of combining an action-packed display with a defensive assurance built on the foundations of composure and stability.
High compliment for a centre back… even higher if the player in question is a central midfielder by trade, eh?
Having impressed in the weekend’s draw with Queens Park Rangers, boss Matt Taylor once again deployed Odoffin to excellent effect in the heart of the defence, where he dovetailed nicely with full home debutant Daniel Ayala to give the Millers a solid base against one of the league’s strongest attacking forces.
Last ditch tackles, heroic blocks and commanding headers were once again the theme of the evening as the former Hamilton Academical operator emerged as the leading performer in what was a fantastic collective display.
Midfielder – and scorer of the dramatic late equaliser – Christ Tiehi ran Odoffin close for the award securing 34.6% of the vote, while there were honourable mentions for Sam Nombe and Fred Onyedinma earned 16% and 4.5% of the vote respectively.
Ultimately, it was Odoffin’s 44.8% of the 754 votes cast that have earned him the Mattress Online Man of the Match crown.
