Lincoln City goalkeeper Lukas Jensen was full of pride as they knocked Sheffield United out of the Carabao Cup on penalties.
With the match ending 0-0, the second round went to a penalty shootout, with Jensen making two saves before United’s Jon Egan missed his spotkick to leave Lincoln 3-2 winners.
Jensen told BBC Radio Lincolnshire: “My main focus was to keep a clean sheet because we’re on a good run of not conceding goals. That’s all that matters. To have that again is a great feeling.
“I don’t mind the game going to penalties because I love it. To do it in front of all our fans on that side is an amazing feeling – to have 3,000 fans cheering and celebrating with us after the game. All the credit should go to the team.
“When we stay together and have a good structure, we can come away with anything – even against a Premier League team. I felt like I could have saved the first one as well. If I choose the right side, I can do that because of my size.
“I felt good, and then after the second one I felt even better. It all worked out. Big credit to my goalkeeper coach. I think they nicked my bottle, so I couldn’t see where they were going to shoot.
“It’s the best feeling. After the second one, I knew we only had one to go to win the game. I must have done something right to put the pressure on him to put it over the bar. He tried to smash it and it didn’t work.
“When I saw it went over the bar, I turned around and celebrated with all the fans. To see that many here is unbelievable. I don’t think you can describe it. You have to be in the moment. All the feelings and emotions came out. It’s probably one of the best feelings in football.”
