Axel Tuanzebe knows the importance of continuing the momentum of regular minutes after making his first Stoke City start on Wednesday night.
Tuanzebe left Manchester United on loan in January, signing for second-tier Stoke for the remainder of the season. The defender had only just returned to training at the start of the year after a lengthy spell on the sidelines before leaving on deadline day.
The 25-year-old continued the latter stages of his rehabilitation programme with the Potters and managed 76 minutes in the 1-0 FA Cup defeat at home to Brighton. And while he admitted he was happy to return to starting action, the United loanee knows the importance of carrying momentum into the rest of the season.
