Southampton teenager Josh Sims admits his first-team debut was "everything he wished for" after starring in their 1-0 victory over Everton.
The 19-year-old put in a man of the match performance after an assist for Charlie Austin's early goal.
But the academy graduate confessed his pass across goal into Austin's path may have been a mis-hit shot.
"The chance fell to me really," he told BBC Radio Solent. "It might have been a shot, but I'll take the assist."
Sims was only told he would be starting against the Toffees on the day of the game, something he believed helped settle his nerves.
