After being devastated in Turin by a sneaky Italian striker winning a dodgy penalty, I was left feeling totally defiant, as if it was us against the world, when our manager Martin O'Neill was interviewed after the game.
He was seething and full of passion. Saying things he probably regrets, but for me it was just what I needed. Thanks Martin. "Wave after wave after wave of attack" ... class.
Of the decision to award a penalty following a foul on - or a dive by - Amoruso, O'Neill said: "It was woeful, an extraordinary decision. "I'm sure when the referee sees it on TV he'll realise I'm right. It was shocking - I couldn't believe it when he pointed to the spot..... That was a devastating blow for us it's hard to take after the way we played...the team's performance in the second half was extraordinary and we mounted wave after wave of attacks."
