"I didn't take any satisfaction at all in Veron going off at half time, he is a friend
of mine and plays for the same club as me. It's not something to gloat over.
"I felt pleased with my own performance but it was a good all-round team
display. We had to show real determination in defence, we passed the ball
well in the middle and looked dangerous up front.

"Tackles flew in but you expect that in a game of such importance. The injury I
had previously knocked me back, but hopefully I can stay in the team
throughout. I wanted to play against Sweden, but maybe wasn't fully fit. The
decision rests with the manager."
