00:00Given that there are going to be a lot of emotionally charged games in the title run-in now,

00:06are there learnings to take from Wednesday night?

00:39but it's difficult to prevent that if you concede 23 kicks,

00:43so then you just have to act.

00:47What is their strongest asset maybe?

00:50Playing the balls in with all these centre-backs and full-backs coming up,

00:58I think we defended that really well.

01:00Players showed that they are more than 11 quality individuals

01:06that can play together in ball possession so well.

01:08They also showed they have great mentality.

01:11Again, in what I've experienced now,

01:14the most difficult circumstances we've played in until now.
