Fenerbah&ccedil;e SK defender and Nigeria skipper Joseph Yobo has admitted that Thursday's fifth round tie of the group stage of the Europa League against his former employer Marseille (1 - 0) was a tough match.<br /><br />The 32 - year - old told the official website of UEFA: ''We're delighted and it's great to have come here and got the three points, even if we knew we needed just the one point to go through. Marseille are a good side and they caused us trouble. At home, we were leading 2-0 against them and in five minutes they equalized for 2-2. <br /><br />''It's natural when you've taken the lead that your opponents attack back, and that's why we tried to protect the goal. Ours was a great goal, the best of the season, and I'm happy for Bekir Ä°rteg&uuml;n.''<br /><br />The Yellow Canaries, with 13 points from 5 matches, have qualified for the last 32 of the competition. <br />
