Transcript
00:01Well, it was a great occasion. I think that game exemplifies the history of the FA Cup,
00:09the difficulty of that and the beauty of that. First of all, because they made it really hard,
00:14so we created tonight on the team and the way they played. Because of the pitch,
00:19that you have to adapt as well, because of the energy that the supporters put in, which I think
00:23was extraordinary. The intensity, the banter at times, the interactions and the belief that they
00:29put in towards the team. And then because you really have to earn it. And we had moments where,
00:35yeah, it should have been two or three, when you don't close the games and they have hope and belief
00:40that becomes more and more dangerous. And after they equalise in the game,
00:44you really have to dig in to earn the right to win it.
