Joao Pedro was interviewed by TNT Sports after scoring a late winner to help Brighton beat Manchester United 2-1 at home in the second round of the Premier League.
First of all, I am happy for the win. I think the goal in the last minute shows how much we wanted to win the game. This is our first game at home against a big team and I feel that nothing can be better than today. I think the team did a good job and now we need to rest because we have a big game next weekend (away to Arsenal).
I think the fans know the quality of the team, so they always expect good games against big teams. Today we won, so I think everyone is happy and we need to enjoy the game.
Like the manager said to us, we need to believe in ourselves. We know they are Manchester United, a big club, but I think everyone wants to show our own quality. I think this is our motivation against big teams, you never know. Now we need to think about the next game, another big team.
I think he is a great person and he always tries to push us to believe in ourselves and keep going. I think it's another big game for us, another three points, and that's what he wants: to fight, to push, until the end.
