Just dwelling on that equaliser because it's a pleasant sensation, isn't it?
You're absolutely right.
There was something even more special about the equaliser than the winner.
He does like to burst the net, doesn't he, Lang?
And there's something almost celebratory about... He begins his celebration with the strike that goes into the net because he whacked it in, didn't he?
He could have tapped it in.
It was a tap in, but he whacked it in.
That's not going to catch on.
But anyway, when they scored their goal and the fella took it well, didn't he?
The defending wasn't of the greatest, but that's partly because a centre-back and a full-back were up overlapping the man on the ball so that we were exposed there.
So that's possibly worth thinking about.
But it was how we came to give them possession.
I don't know if you've had a chance to look at it back.
But it was John Swift on the ball and he tried to get the ball to Lang.
But it was the wrong choice because by the time he actually made the pass, Yang was not just covered.
He had a man in intercepting position and he intercepted.
Whereas a much simpler ball would have been to have gone wide because I think it was Lang who was free on the right.
But Swift wanted to do the penetrating ball going directly forward, which is, I think, something that they talk about, going forward with their passes.
But it was, and when you look at it again, it was the wrong call.
