“The belief, all the way through we had it, we kept going. We didn’t get too downbeat and then it came,” he said.  

“It’s a great feeling, the first time we’ve won it in four years so honestly it’s amazing. To do it with a young group in the first real game of the season, it’s great.

“I thought it was going to be Erling (Haaland)! But Bernie was there, he’s a great headerer, so fortunately he got there.

“It’s another trophy. It’s a great start, keeps a lot of confidence and no negatives.”
