Hodgson proud of fightback

Roy Hodgson was thrilled at his sides fightback as they earned a memorable 3-2 victory over Man City away from home to improve drastically their Premiership survival hopes.

"I thought we were unlucky to be two goals down at half time to be honest," Hodgson told Sky Sports.

"But I didn't say that to the players at the break, I just challenged them to win the second half.

"It was a tremendous victory for us, a very exciting performance and both teams threw caution to the wind to an extent and it must have been a very exciting match for the supporters.

"I think the quality of our football over the last 10 games has been better than the haul of points we have managed to achieve, but for the first time we've managed to get that bit of luck."
