About |
"I think Juninho would have been proud to score a
goal like that - but he couldn’t be as proud as I am. It’s always very pleasing
to get your first goal for your new club and I was delighted it counted for
something as we got a point."
"Make no doubt about it, I was going for goal. As I came in from the left I had
a look over to see if anyone was in a more clear-cut position, but they were
not. I didn’t want to smash the ball at the goalkeeper because he’d probably
have saved it so I was delighted to push it beneath him and into the far corner
of the net. It was an important time for us to score with them having equalised
just a minute or so earlier."
"Everyone stopped when the flag went up. I know you should play to the whistle
but it took a long time for the officials to discuss the matter.
"It was disappointing when it was allowed to stand but in scoring immediately I
think we showed the character in our team. We defended very well, not just the
back four but the entire 11 of us and I think we deserved to get at least a
point."
"We’d been working on the back four since that match and I think we defended
much better."
