Norwich City head coach Dean Smith felt there would only be one winner following Josh Sargent's acrobatic first Premier League goal in Friday night's 3-0 win at Watford.
A closely fought first-half was followed by a clinical second-half display by the Canaries, where they scored three unanswered goals to climb out of the relegation zone in the Premier League.
And Dean was chuffed with his team’s work ethic when he spoke afterwards: “It’s a big result at the moment – it’s the first time I’ve had back-to-back wins with this club. I’m really pleased with the effort the players put in. They’ve worked really hard without the ball today.
“We gave up a midfielder and gave up a bit of the ball out times, but we felt it was worth it with the way Adam (Idah) and Teemu (Pukki) linked up last week.
“I thought we started the game really well, but it got taken away from us a little bit in the last 20 minutes of the first-half.
“But we weathered the storm that we had to, got in at half-time and the goal gave everyone a lift in the second-half.
“We started it on the front foot. It’s a great bit of improvisation from Sarge (Josh Sargent) for the goal, from there, there was only one winner.
“Apart from the lights going out, I was fearing the game getting called off, but it was light enough to play. Sarge then got the second from a great cross from Milot (Rashica) and then the own goal.”
The focus was certainly on Sargent after he scored his first and second Premier League goals to fire City to a vital victory.
And Dean was delighted for his American international: “I’m really pleased for him. It endears him to the supporters, they were singing his name.
“It’s been coming, he’s not playing in probably his favoured position. But his work ethic is tremendous and his physicality helps us.
“We’ve sacrificed a man in midfield at the moment because we feel it’s worth it. In other games we might have to change that.
“But delighted for Sarge. He had a newborn the other week so I’m sure he’ll dedicate the goals to his family
