Muriel over the moon: “Goal is reward for hard work, huge win today”

You might not see his name in the official goalscoring charts for today, but Luis Muriel still had a starring role in Samp’s victory over Udinese.

“The goal to give us the lead came with a feeling of great relief after a tough period when I wasn’t playing that often.

“Despite the deflection off Armero, I am delighted because it rewards my hard work over recent months.

“We’ve got out of the bottom end of the table, now we can finish the season in a calmer state of mind.”
