Our goalkeeper was the biggest factor. He made four top-quality saves and they also hit the woodwork. Marcus has been terrific for us. He is a terrific kicker and superb shot-stopper. He has the World Cup in his sights with the USA and his performances need to reflect that.
More Quotes from Steve Coppell:
He's been injured most of the season. You saw an awful lot of pent-up emotion when he scored. He's spent a lot of time in the treatment room and gym.Steve Coppell
He's strong and when he's got a sight of goal he thinks about nothing but scoring. Whether he keeps his place and plays at the weekend, though, I don't know. Last time he was injured I was guilty of rushing him back too quickly, so we'll see how he reacts to two hours of football and take it from there.

It was a difficult game to evaluate but over the 90 minutes I thought we were the better side. They made it difficult for us and for a while it worked.

The second-half performance reflected what we've been about all season. It was in stark contrast to the attempted exhibition stuff of the first half.
Steve Coppell
I just hope we can finish the season off in the same way we've gone all year. We had a really strong spell and we got daylight between ourselves and the rest of the pack. We've managed to maintain that distance. But I'm not saying it's become routine now.
