“The longer the game went on the better we got, you couldn’t ask anymore of them really tonight. They played some really good football and there was some great goals scored.
“Going a goal behind with players who havent played, we could’ve quite easily fallen apart. But they didn’t, they got stronger as the game went on, they’re passing improved and I thought overall we played really well.”
