Indeed. In the first instance, Ojo is covering, Bennett tracks back. He cannot predict where the defensive header will go and it happens that he can't quite get anything on it to divert it further clear.
The run and cross beats him for pace. If he drops back anticipating that he shows the attacker on the inside for a shot at goal. The cross is perfect otherwise Bennett gets a toe on it or Smithies saves it/it goes behind.

very few chances, and they stopped attacking after the pen
Harris maybe got the first 11 wrong but it takes a very brave manager to change a team who have won 3 on the bounce. I don't think many would have but I think some looked a little tired and we needed that spark from the bench.
Got the subs spot on though and changed the game for another win. Can't fault an away win.
