“Secondly, I think Ivan is a specialist for exactly these situations.

“We have created many opportunities with Gibbs-White, with EBs [Eberechi Eze]With Morgan Rodgers, and with Jude in smooth positions.

“I think Ivan is strongest if we have a phase in which we have many balls in the box and that was the case, so after 80 minutes we prepared it.

“Then we scored and they took the goal away and it took a while longer than we wanted, but that is what he can give – presence in the box and a goal later in the game.”
