"Incredible, the feeling to score that goal and help the team get the win, an important win against the table leaders," declared Buendia at the final whistle.

"Really proud to help the team and score that goal. Very happy.

"It shows the character of the teams in this league, they did well to try to block the shot with three players on the floor. I saw the space and had the opportunity, really happy.

"We have to keep doing our job and stay focussed on us and prepare every game. The season is long and we need to work hard, game by game. Every match is difficult and we have to keep this mentality until the end."
