Agree Dave. Our defence stood up against a strong, fast & awkward forward line really well. Forshaw looks like he’s never been away. James had his best game and with Raph on the pitch there’s always a chance of a goal - some balls to take that penalty and like that.
Someone else said “91 tense, nerve wracking minutes, followed by 4 of the best.” One thing is that the appeals for VAR adds a whole extra level of appeal and wait... before the taker even steps up to kick the ball.
