He is such a reassuring presence at the back. It’s no surprise the goal came when he was still ruing the fact the Eriksen’s cross never looked like reaching him in the Barca penalty area.

Summary

This was a great performance, one of the best ever. OK, they didn’t win but no one would have given them a snowball’s chance in hell of qualifying three games ago. And they did it – they bloody did it! Character, yes, buckets of character. But skill too.

They went to the Nou Camp and utterly dominated second half. Their collective touch around the eighteen yard area was positively Barcelonesque. We’re so proud of those players.

Now, we look forward to Monday and learn of who we will face in the next round.
