Liverpool fullback Conor Bradley was delighted proving Northern Ireland's matchwinner against Scotland.
Bradley struck midway through the first-half for the win.
"I don't think I could have dreamed of it going the way it did," 20-year-old Bradley told BBC Sport NI.
"I was just hoping it went in, to be honest.
"I don't even know what happened after that. To get the 1-0 win is just fantastic and it's a great night all-round.
"I think we still have lots of places to improve, but that was a great performance. I think at times we could have been a bit better on the ball.
"To defend the way we did for the 90 minutes and keep a clean sheet here at Hampden, obviously Scotland are going to the Euros and they are a great side full or Premier League players, it is just brilliant."
Manager Michael O'Neill also said: "It's a brilliant goal by Conor.
"I thought in Bucharest he was terrific playing as a wing back and tonight we played him up a bit to see if we could get his energy in that area of the pitch.
"He gave us that and obviously the goal is an example of that. He then has that little bit of ability to create the space for the shot. It's a brilliant finish."
