Jordan Pickford explains what went through his mind before 'miracle' save from Cesar Azpilicueta for Everton

Jordan Pickford is refusing to dwell on his sensational save from Cesar Azpilicueta - insisting the last five games of Everton's season are his priority.

Pickford's lightning-quick reactions and intelligent footwork drew praise after he pulled off the seemingly impossible against Chelsea last Sunday. Everton goalkeeping coach Alan Kelly went so far as to describe the stop as "miraculous" while some have compared it to Gordon Banks' iconic save from Pele for England in the 1970 World Cup.

Pickford is admittedly "really happy" with the save but believes it will only have a place in Goodison folklore if the club can secure Premier League survival.
