Townsend said: "It was a good team performance from us, we made one or two mistakes defensively as a team but I think we got away with them due to the quality we had in the final third and we got the three points we deserved and needed.
"We knew that if we got ahead and remained patient that the game would come to us, and with the attacking players we've got, we attacked in numbers and maybe left one or two spaces behind for them to counter but we got away with it today and got the three points."
"[my goal] has been well overdue, I have been below par over the last few weeks with injury and form, so it was nice to contribute again with a goal and an assist. I am happy and hopefully I can get another one in the last game and end the season on a high."
