"Initially, the goal was disallowed, so I was incredibly anxious while it was being reviewed by VAR. But I'm thrilled I could contribute to the win. When it was confirmed, I saw all my teammates running towards me and thought, 'I need to run, they're going to tackle me to the ground!'" Freeman stated.

"It was incredibly emotional for me because I think everyone dreams of a moment like that. And for it to finally happen, surrounded by so many people to help you celebrate, makes it even more special," the defender added.
