Delighted Noble said: “We see him do that all the time in training. That’s what he brings to us.

“He and Sakho worked their socks off . If they carry on like that they will be a couple of good buys.

“We have to be happy coming away with the point, we hit the bar, and the keeper made a wonderful save. It was good and a great game for the neutrals.
