He said after the match: “We are giving our best and tonight we got the reward.
“I would be as proud if City scored right at the end. We would be flat in the dressing room and we would have been unlucky. “That’s why it’s important to get the reward of a point.
“I said to the guys that the best thing from this game wasn’t just the point, but the performance and the determination we showed.
“We were willing to die for each other on the pitch tonight.
“That’s what we have to do in every game. Is it easy? No it’s not. But we have to try.
