Collins later said, "I thought we were very good.

“We were brave on the ball and in the press. We worked hard and we got our reward early on.

“They got on top a bit more during the second half, as they do, because they’re one of the best teams in the world, but I’m incredibly proud of the boys.

"This has to be the standard for the rest of the season.”
