But it is true that we have to value one, because the team fought until the end.

I think we could have even finished the comeback, because we finished much stronger physically than them.

We were putting on the pressure, we had some chances. But we couldn't do it.

It is more or less what we expected.

I think we struggled, especially with the long balls to (Oli) McBurnie.

They were going very direct and he was not just winning them, leaving balls there where they could have second chances.

They were having good opportunities to attack, from these direct balls, when he was fighting for them.

But I think later we could control the game. We were putting a lot of pressure on them.

We had a lot of chances, shots, crosses, set plays.

We scored the goals, but probably we should have scored more.

Today the game didn't go in our side. We missed a penalty with a slip and in these kind of games, you want to go ahead, because they have to change tactics and then the game becomes different."
