"It's very exciting when the goals go in as late as that for our team and for our supporters.
"To come to venues like this and play against teams like that, who had a successful season last year, is difficult.
"We're playing against a team who are very strong at home. We didn't find our rhythm early on.
"For us to show the character that we did in the second half and bounce back from what wasn't, to our standards, a great first half is testament to the players. The commitment and ability to keep going until the end was what pleased us most.
"I think all of our strikers - Yousef, Callum Robinson, Isaak Davies, as much as I say it is about the team, and we score goals as a team, they want to score because it fuels them.
"It was a great cross from Chris [Willock] to service that. I thought we looked quite dangerous at the end of the game. We tried to be as aggressive as possible. We put all of our attacking players on the pitch and go for it.
"Sometimes fortune favours the brave.
"As much as the first half wasn't what we want, there were clear signs in the second half of the team we want to be, especially going right until the very end and attacking our opponents goal, in the swell of our away support.
"In the end, to give our fans the goal they deserve, is hugely satisfying."

We finished strong, as he made the right substitutions but those players should have started. Chambers & Ng still have a foot in last season & it shows. Fish, Lawlor & Kpakio have to start.
Ng and Chambers look a level below Kpakio and Lawlor. And that’s bonkers. Get them back in the team.
Avoided telling us why he decided to change half the defence that’s keeping clean sheets.
I hope he doesn’t go all Omar Riza and thinking he’s too clever and ha to change something every game.
we need the whole squad to be firing if we are to keep up this challenge in the league. it's possible that Lawlor and kpakio keep this level of football for 40+ games, but it's equally likely they drop off or pick up injuries at some point.Originally Posted by Spooky Tree
Ng missed all of preseason and in fact hasnt played regularly in 6 months, and a lot of last season was injury hit. hopefully he's just a little ring rusty.
