Legendary Giants wide-receiver Amani Toomer says that playing in front of English fans at Wembley is an experience he will never forget, and hopes the game now takes off in the UK.

Toomer told TheFA.com after the game: "It was great. I loved the fact of being an ambassador of the game and being in a different country, I really enjoyed it.

"I just wish the weather conditions could have been a little better and we could have caught some more ball. That was about it, everything else was great plus we won on top of that, so there's nothing to complain about.

"The weather was definitely a factor in us throwing the ball, and there were some completions that we probably should have got but didn't because of the conditions."

Toomer also thought that the English fans understood the game and enjoyed the spectacle of the first regular season match between NFL teams outside of North America.

"I think so, you know they came early and they stayed until the end. I know they were upset at the end, but we wanted to win the game. We had to kneel in the final play to see out the clock, that's kind of how you have to do it.

"Wembley was great, had the conditions been a little better we would have had a lot more entertaining game. We wanted to show what American Football is all about, but we didn't really get a chance to do that because of the conditions."
