00:00Right, so that's an important win in the league. How do you sum up the team's performance today?
00:04Yeah, really good today. We were obviously disappointed to concede quite early, but the boys rallied to be fair to them and got the three goals back pretty quickly.
00:143-1 took it into half-time and then managed the game second half, which was really, really pleasing.
00:19First win in a standout performance out there today?
00:22For me, I would say probably the spine of the team. I think Ethan was excellent in goal again.
00:27He's been brilliant for us, obviously, over the last 10 games or so.
00:30Jack and Robbie really stood up today and punched everything back to them.
00:34Their centre-forward didn't get a sniff.
00:38Yeah, midfield was really brilliant again.
00:40And then the front two were their socks off.
00:42Loads were running in behind. We asked them to mix up a bit.
00:45They like to come in short, but we try to encourage them to go in behind as well.
00:49So they did that really, really well today.
00:52But yeah, overall, a good win against a good side, a decent side, which takes us into next week.
00:58Yeah, so on to next week.
01:00Obviously, we're playing second, which is a big game.
01:03What are you expecting from that game?
01:05Yeah, so we've played them a couple of times.
01:07We beat them at home in the cup, lost 3-1 in the season.
01:11But yeah, they're obviously a decent outfit.
01:15They've got a good record. They've done really, really well this year.
01:18So we need to be on our metal to get anything from it.
01:21We're back ourselves. We're obviously on a good little run.
01:24So yeah, hopefully we can turn them over next week.
01:27And then we've still got that slim chance of promotion and the cup finals to look forward to as well.
01:33So yeah, got to keep it going.
01:36Right, so how do you think you performed today?
01:38Yeah, no, I think it was a good performance.
01:41In terms of myself, getting two goals is really important.
01:45But also winning my defensive battles and staying disciplined.
01:48I think that was really important in the game.
01:50But obviously team performance, I thought we all played very well.
01:53Yeah, just on the team performance.
01:56Was there anyone else out there that you thought had a good performance?
02:00Yeah, I think all round, to be honest.
02:02Rob, commanding at the back, obviously Jack Morello for his pace.
02:05I think Ibra and Maxi really stretched the game for us in behind.
02:08So yeah, there was a few standouts.
02:10George, George as well, holding the ball up very well.
02:12So I think overall team performance, I think we played very well.
02:15Probably should have scored a few more goals to go with it.
02:18And just looking ahead to the next game, we're playing second.
02:21What do you expect from that game?
02:23It's probably going to be one of our biggest games of the season, especially in the league.
02:26Obviously we're chasing them at the moment.
02:28We've got a lot of games in hand, a lot of games to play.
02:31We played them before at home, where we won 4-3, we scored last minute.
02:35So hopefully, same again.
