Reflecting on the result, he said, "It's very big, a massive three points for us. I think we deserved it after everything.
"We've had many games where we scored but lost in the end and thankfully we broke that today. Winning at home is very important because, for the fans, from last season, we took many points here in our stadium and it's very important to have taken that back for our team and our confidence."
The sole effort which broke the deadlock today was a masterclass in striking a ball and Milivojevic will no doubt be happy with the way in which he guided his team to victory. Looking over the long-range drive, he explained, "I got the ball from Andros, saw the space and decided to shoot. Gladly, it was a wonderful goal.
"Many times this season, we didn't have any luck. But today we did, and I think we deserved that."
