Cambridge goalscorer Joe Ironside speaks: “I can’t describe it,” he tells the BBC. “I am a bit lost for words, it panned out how I dreamed about it last night. I am proud of every single one of us.

“I have got to play here [at St James’ Park] and it is the stuff I dreamed of, Alan Shearer was my hero, I grew up idolising him - now I have scored the winner at St James’ Park. It doesn’t matter how they go in. It could have been that or a worldie, I don’t care. We have all dug in together and it is a momentous day for the football club.”

On the increidble performance of Cambridge goalkeeper Dimitar Mitov: “He is one of the nicest kids, the hardest working,” he says. “He has kept us in the game with some brilliant saves. One at the end where he finger-tipped it over the bar He was outstanding.

“He works so hard and on the big stage today he has shone. It was one of those things you will never forget, a pinch me moment, just brilliant.”
