'It's not been easy for me recently, but my team-mates have been Fab'

GOAL AT LUTON 'RELIEF' FOR BURTON SUPER SUB TAVARES, WHO SAYS TIME BEING OUT OF SIDE HAS BEEN TOUGH

- By DAN NEWBOULD

LUTON hero Fabio Tavares has opened up on the tough times he has been experiencing out of the Burton Albion starting XI.

Tavares has found his playing time limited of late owing to the form of several other stars playing in and around his position.

But he was there when needed to nod home a late leveller at Luton on Saturday and secure a priceless point.

He beamed: “Everyone was buzzing and just happy for me and it was a relief to see everyone coming up to me.

“It’s not been easy for me recently but it just makes it feel even better when you see everyone coming up to you. It just feels like the lads want you to do well. It’s positive.
