“It's the goalkeeper’s job to keep the ball out,” he explained. “That's what I'm here for. You don't get more or less important saves…
“That's what football's about. Besides, we'd created so many chances before then and been wasteful.
“It was important to win – that is all that mattered. Partizan seemed to wane in the second half and we took control.”
