"The boss told me that he needed someone to play in that position so I tried to do my best," he said.
"I don't know if I was good or not but I tried to give the team as much as possible.
"Everyone knows that I am a central midfielder but sometimes I have played on the right hand side for the national team but never before at right back.
"It was a new experience but I hope that I helped the team because that is the most important thing.
"I always try to think about the team and if the team needs me to play in that position I will try to do my best.
"I know that I am at my best in the centre of midfield but you never know what can happen and if we have some players with injuries - like we did tonight with Arbeloa and Degen - then I do not have a problem with filling in for them."
