Match analysis
"This game is very fast, sometimes not even like the first game of the season. Although we were leading at halftime, the opponent gradually regained confidence due to our slack pressing. A 2-1 score already indicates danger."
Reaction after being tied
"When the opponent equalizes the score, we have to take a step forward. They have some outstanding The players and played well, but we did not lose control of the game and successfully scored the third goal. Both teams were tired, and any small mistake could change the situation. "
The importance of the rhythm of the game
" This is the true portrayal of the top league, every game is very difficult, and the outcome often depends on the details. A winning streak seems easy, but in fact every point needs to be fought for. The next game is hard every game, we will win some, and we will lose some. There is still a long way to go... It is best not to think about the future too early. It is important to maintain the position we like, especially after going through hard and poor pre-season preparations. We hope to show competitiveness, which is what we always do, and we also eager to win the first league game."
