West Brom boss Irvine: I'm absolutely delighted with victory

West Bromwich Albion boss Alan Irvine was delighted with their 1-0 win at Leicester City.

Esteban Cambiasso's own-goal two minutes into the second half proved decisive at the King Power Stadium.

"I'm absolutely delighted with the result and I'm quite happy to take goals like that," Irvine said.

"It was fortunate the way the goal went in but it was a good move to get there. "When you consider Manchester United, Arsenal, Everton and Burnley have all been here and none of them have won, I'm delighted.

"It was always going to be a really tough place to get a victory and while that wasn't the way I anticipated getting the victory, it was certainly welcome."
