“Numbers don't give you points, but I think we are having our chances.
“We are creating things.
“I feel like the wingers, the forwards, the number ten are having chances, are being a threat for the opposition.
“I hope they can continue like this because I think the most important thing is to have the chances to get there, to play a lot in the last third and then I trust my players to finish it also and to score the goals.”
