"Manchester were just on another level to us in the first half.
"We weren't playing well, but we said to each other at half-time, 'We're only down by five, we can be confident now'. We raised our game and came out with a win."
Lasker added: "It was rocking in here (in the Pavilions). Hopefully we can keep the crowds this big for the rest of the season. It definitely gives you an extra ounce of energy at the end."
