""We should have had a two-goal lead at the break; we were clearly dominant and had good chances. But if you're not consistent, one chance is often enough for the opposition to score. After the break, we dropped the intensity and rhythm a little and gave the ball away too often. Fortunately, we were able to gather ourselves in the final quarter, increase the tempo and put the pressure on. We created chances in the final few minutes and deserved to get the goal at the end.""
""It was a real slog. We failed to convert our dominance into goals, especially in the first half when we should have had a clearer lead. It became more difficult in the second half because our opponents were better organised and found good solutions. Nevertheless, we ultimately deserved the win. We never gave up, made the most of every minute and battled to the end.""
