Jorginho has revealed that he trained throughout the week thinking he might have the opportunity to score a penalty past Everton’s Jordan Pickford this weekend.

‘I think about things when I’m stood over the ball ready to take a penalty and of course I thought about that moment for a split second [Euros penalty miss],’ the midfielder explained when speaking after the 1-0 away win.

‘Throughout the week I work on my penalties and I look at what the opposition goalkeeper does, which way he tends to dive and what he might do in that moment to try and save the shot.

‘I was thinking about that and in my head I took the decision on where to hit the ball and thankfully, this time, it was the right choice.

‘I was definitely thinking of my last penalty against him [Pickford] and for me, a penalty is 70/75 per cent in the head. There’s a lot of psychology that goes into it.

‘I trained a lot in the week for this moment. It came and fortunately for me and the team it went well!’
