“It felt like a basketball game at the end," he told the club's website.

“Forward and back, back and forth. But if I'm being honest a point is fair. We weren't good enough [in the first half], they were better than us.

“We started the game unbelievably with chances, getting corners but then we let ourselves off.

“I thought we were the best in the second half. When we got that goal it lifted us, the stadium and from then on it was mostly us despite some counters from them."
