Victor Moses was voted Man of the Match after a solid display from the wing-back and he revealed after the game that he was impressed with the performance of the team.

“We showed good character from the start, we had a few chances in the first half which we should have taken,” Moses told Sky Sports.

“In the second half, they came at us and we were strong at the back. We did very well today.

“I am delighted and excited to be in the first 11, the new manager wants to give the youngsters an opportunity to express themselves.

“The top is very tight. The Premier League is a hard season and we want to take each game as it comes.”
