I have to say the first half was more for us because we created a few chances.

The second-half it was different. “We suffered a lot, they pressed up high, they took a lot of risks and it was difficult, but we could overcome the press and score two goals.”Had Liverpool played like this across the two legs, they would likely have come away with a much better result in both games, and could even have gone through.
