Palmer is also expressing surprise at the tactics of their rivals in that contest.

Palmer declared: "This is my favourite goal. I just couldn't believe how much time and space I had. 

“When I got the ball, I took a touch and then I took another one and I thought 'where is everyone?'

"Then there was just loads of players there so I thought 'if I shoot on target, hard, I've got a chance'. When I got it, they were all pointing saying 'mark him', and none of them came out."
