DIEGO GOING OVER THE TOP

"I thought my shot for the goal was going over," he said. "When I hit it it was going over the player and it looked like it would also go over the bar but it suddenly came down and it was nice to see it go in. It was great for me and great for the team and the staff who have been very good to me. The team were playing well in the second half and had a few chances but we didn't score them and then I got my chance. It was an important win for us so that we stay in touch with the leaders.

"It is good for my confidence. But I have always been encouraged by the manager to keep working hard and he assured me that I was doing fine for the team. That helped me."
