Lampard said while speaking to reporters:
“For everyone it is a lift, but we have to be realistic. We know they dominated the game for long periods.
We won't be shouting from rooftops. We understand football.”
He admitted that his side were extremely happy about the result but were not willing to get carried away with the narrow victory. Lampard found the back of the net after http://www.senore.com/Football-soccer/Darren-Bent-c10358’s shot rebounded right across the goal, earning his side a lucky win over the World and European champions. The Blues midfielder credited the Spanish side for this resistance but at the same time praised his side’s defensive abilities.
Lampard revealed:
“They are without doubt the best team in the world. It gives us something to build on but we know we have to improve.”
It was the English defenders who denied the Spaniards from finding the back of the net and equalizing the score line. However, Lampard was aware that there was still a lot of work to be done before http://www.senore.com/Football-soccer/England-c749 could be once again considered amongst the top sides in the World. He said he was extremely proud to have captained his side to victory against Spain in the particular fixture, which happened to take place in Remembrance week.
He admitted:
“It was an amazing feeling to walk out as captain against the world champions on Remembrance weekend.”
Lampard continued:
“It wasn't the easiest goal I scored considering the way we had to chase around in the first half and I needed the legs to get up there.
But it was a very exciting goal for me to score, with captaining the team as well.”
On the goal, Lampard admitted it was not the easiest goal but definitely one of the most memorable ones he had scored in his career. Having had a highly successful experience as England captain, the Chelsea vice-captain revealed he was would not mind never captaining his country ever again.
