Speaking to talkSPORT Breakfast this morning (Monday, February 7), Russ Penn said: “To lose it with ten seconds to go in extra-time was heartbreaking, but I’ve got to say this, West Ham were absolutely superb on the day.
“Declan Rice came into the changing room after the game, gave a load of shirts out and even jumped in the same showers as our lads.
“As you can imagine, it was surreal!
“But he was the game-changer, he was superb. He was excellent, there’s no doubt he’s going to be absolutely massive in the future.”
