We can take a lot from that game, to play against one of the best teams in the world and we've outplayed them for 90 minutes, ... They've scored two goals in the last two minutes of extra time. We had a lot of young lads out there who played as if they had been around for a long time.
I'd love him to be playing against us, because he is one of my closest friends and because he is a great player - and you want to play against the best.
Playing against some of the best defenders in the world, he ran away from a couple and held off a couple and that's not easy to do,

He was involved in a lot of things when he came on as he was against Argentina in November.
We grew up together so it was nice to lead our countries against one another,

Without doubt, I always said that I would not go into management,
We said a few things in Spanish and swapped shirts ... He had a smile to say 'that's the way it goes'.
Why don't the Argentinean players like me? I don't know,
