They weren't frightened to put a tackle in and we had to be committed and get stuck in.

Sometimes going in for a hard tackle generates a louder cheer than a great pass.

It was a mistimed tackle, and not malicious, but we would not win an appeal. When players are as committed as mine are, these things happen, and it was a physical game, though there were no hard feelings afterwards.

The managers are getting paid very well by their respective clubs to do a job for their clubs not the country they are working in.

You can take 100 penalties in training, but when you go out on that pitch in front of all those people and the television cameras, it's completely different.

It was a tremendous turnaround because we were rubbish in first half.
