"There was a sporting dimension to the fixture tonight, of course there was, but on a human level the match had far greater importance” he said. “We were up for it as well, but the human aspect was bigger. I felt very strong emotions, powerful emotions. When we all sang together it was a special, powerful moment: a moment where everyone came together. It was heart-rending. You felt it in your gut. It was a moving, grandiose moment."
