Eberechi Eze scored a stunning individual goal to give his team that point and spoke to reporters post-game.

“I think we did well – we put in a shift,” Eze told Premier League Productions.

“We knew it was going to be difficult because they’re a good team – they’ve got loads of talent in the team – but we knew what we needed to do. Getting a point, we deserved it.

“When you play in games like that, you need everybody putting in a shift, working hard and giving that extra 10 percent. I think we did that today, and getting a point is something to build on for sure.”
