When he does get into those forward runs and he gets on the end of balls, he scores goals.
But the way that he did it was just incredible because it was two touches.
He had the one touch to get past the defender and then get around him.
But it was almost that...
that explosive speed that he took it to another level.

Well, I think it worked against Turquoise because we didn't concede.
I think the good thing with playing that formation and that style is that if you don't concede, you're always a chance to get them on the counter.
