Then when we had the eye contact, I knew he was going to put in [the ball] and I just threw myself."Obviously with me during that time I knew I was scoring less, I was less involved in goals and assists.

I was a bit annoyed because as a striker you want to be involved and help the team with scoring goals or give assists."I just kept working. I'm glad that today I could score for the team.

I just want more – especially to win [as] that's most important for me at the moment. Even if I don't score, I want us to win."
