During the game, I suffered. You run and you run and you don't touch the ball and you defend. You suffer. [When Terry was sent off] you think it's going to be very, very hard. A man down, losing. But Ramires's goal gave us life. At half-time, the manager told us we'd done that hardest part: score. If Ramires hadn't scored and in the moment he scored, I think we wouldn't have got through.
