With the match ball in his hands, hat-trick hero Josh Magennis sat down to share his thoughts on City's dramatic 5-3 FA Cup win against Barnet.

The Northern Irishman opened the scoring, before Barnet went ahead early on in the second half. Josh then scored two penalties in 10 minutes to drag City equal twice, before Jay Bird and then Kamari Doyle won the match deep into added time.

It was a tough first half, where City couldn't seem to capitalise on Magennis' early opener. 

"I don't think that was through a lack of trying I think the chances and positions we get in are unbelievable and it's testament to how we work Monday to Friday," said Josh.

"The most clinical ones came in added time with Jay Bird and Kamari Doyle managing to finish them."

"All in all it was an end-to-end game, but one we managed to win and we'll take the positives."

Two penalties from Josh then set up a grandstand finish.

"I've been very blessed that I've hit a lot of penalties and a lot have gone in. It's just trying to distance yourself from the moment," Josh explained.

"It's just about whether you make a good connection or not, if the keeper saves it he saves it but if it goes in, happy days."
