Samuelsen: “Fans made it easy for me”
The Norwegian 18 year old made a terrific start to his Irons career at Peterborough last weekend and impressed his boss sufficiently to step onto the European stage last night (Thurs) as a second half sub.
And he received a brilliant reception from the ‘Claret and Blue Army’ as he showed some fine skills.
Speaking to the official website he said: ” “It felt amazing to play at the Boleyn Ground and it was a really good feeling.
“I was very nervous when Slaven first called me to go on but I wanted to enjoy the moment. The fans are amazing and I heard them supporting me. They made it easy for me to go on.
“It was important that we got the victory. We worked hard until the final minutes and thought we played well in the final stages of the game. Overall we had a good performance. I am confident we can make it through to the next round. ”
