'You get caught up in the emotion' - Michael Dawson
“22 yards out, Christian Eriksen steps up...yes, ha ha...
“I told you only one person was going to hit it and it was Christian Eriksen. I told you there was going to be another goal, there is, two-all!”
So often captain in his latter career at Spurs, Michael, now skipper at Hull, played 324 times for us between 2005-14 and wore the armband when we faced AC Milan at the same stage of the Champions League in 2011. He knew exactly how important this first leg was in Turin and it was raw emotion as we completed our comeback from 2-0 down for 2-2.
