    Despite going through extreme mental pressure of combating racial abuse throughout the competition, Carter was out on the pitch and had a fabulous outing. After the match, the player told ITV: "I was super scared to play today, which is the first time in my life. Then when I woke up this morning and saw my team and the support that I had from my team-mates, my family and my manager, I knew I had to come out today and give it my all."
