We Kept Our Cool, Says Hermansen

- This success was also City's sixth away success in a row - a Club record
- Mads Hermansen says Leicester must focus on their work to continue this run
The Danish 'keeper conceded his first goal in 200 minutes of football during this victory in South Wales, but made a crucial, diving stop to tip Jamal Lowe's blazing hit onto the crossbar.

"I’m just happy that we kept our cool and kept on playing. We got rewarded in the end."
Reflecting on that magnificent save to deny Lowe, he added: "I got a small touch to it, so for me, every save is important. It came at an important time. I just try to do my job and keep on improving."
