Ikpeazu’s Wycombe Wanderers deny Rooney first win as Derby County interim manager

Uganda forward Uche Ikpeazu’s Wycombe Wanderers denied Wayne Rooney a first win since he took over as Derby County interim manager after a 1-1 draw at Pride Park on Saturday.

Derby County scored for the first time in nearly eight hours but a one-all draw against Wycombe Wanderers meant they will remain at the bottom of Championship table.

In the 17th minute, the visitors were forced to make a change when Curtis Thompson looked unable to continue with the game and Alexander Pattison came on.

Duane Holmes’ clever finish in the 36th minute ended Derby’s goal drought but Ikpeazu’s teammates look re-energised in the second half and scored an equaliser courtesy of Matt Bloomfield’s close-range strike in the 46th minute.
