Danel Sinani was given his first league start for Huddersfield Town on Saturday as the Terriers thrashed Reading to go fourth in the Championship.
He was just one of 14 players from Norwich City, currently out on loan, who got minutes over the weekend with some impressive results.
Sinani didn't score in the match, but starting up front, alongside Josh Koroma and Danny Ward, he was a threat throughout the match hitting the post with a wonderfully flighted free kick and having another effort on target saved before departing after 62 minutes, to be replaced defender Ollie Turton with the score at 2-0.
Josip Drmić netted in the first half of HNK Rijeka's 2-1 victory over Hajduk Split as he finished off a counter attack superbly by cutting the ball back on to his right foot and sending a shot into the bottom corner. The win lifted Rijeka above Split in the table and they are now level on points with league leaders Dinamo Zagreb.
There was a first league start for Sam McCallum at QPR as he faced Coventry City, the side that he was on loan at last season. McAllum performed well hitting one effort on target as Rangers won the match 2-0.

He came off the bench after 57 minutes to power a header at goal that former Exeter City shot stopper Christy Pym did well to stop. And with the scores still at 0-0 he helped his team push forward and grab a late winner through Semi Ajayi. The result keeper the Baggies second in the table.
