"We decided to keep Edi because the more offensive, the more strikers from the two teams on the pitch. I took Mason off, that was my decision.
"We could have done it differently but it shows how great he is, how the fans like Mason as a local player and, like I said, his effort and performance wasn't great but at least he was the best of the lads today."
