Newport manager – we were the only team looking to win it
Newport manager Michael Flynn felt his late substitutions paid off as they defeated Port Vale 1-0 on Saturday.
The home side won the game thanks to a 77th minute winner from Jamille Matt.
“We were at home and we were the only team looking to win it, so I went for it,” said the Exiles boss.
“I took the right-back off, Robbie slotted in well and it gave us more pace and attacking threat down the right.
“And I’m over the moon for Jamille because he’s been frustrated and snatching at things as he’s tried to get off the mark and get that first goal, but he’s done it now.
“The burden has been shaken off and I hope he can go on a bit of a run now.”
