“This was a huge win for us today and we showed real determination to put our poor run behind us and take an early lead.
“I'm thrilled to have made my debut, although I'm very sorry about Maduka [Okoye]'s injury. It doesn't change a lot for me except now I'm maybe a bit more involved mentally.
“I communicated with my team-mates a lot during the game. I had some excellent, experienced players in front of me.
“This win can help us get back to being the team we were at the start of the season. We need to stick to our guns and keep working hard.”
