“Not the football control that we were playing recently, so there are many things to adjust. Second half, I think we found ourselves a little bit more in the last third.

We cannot dream about playing beautiful every single game. it’s to make sure that we get the three points. and the result, so I’m happy with the situation right now,” commented Riveiro.
“I think we didn’t reach well a couple of situations in the central corridor. We were allowing them to press us in key situations, always backward. We didn’t find more situations where we can attack the last line of the opponent.“From that they grew with transitions, with speed. The work of George in the last line. It was a rough game, it was a tough game. The 4-0 maybe tells that it was an easy one, but not at all.
