That’s always in pre-season the same: we need to have a look what is really physically, because we did a lot in training and yesterday a lot in really tough circumstances.
I thought we played super in the first 10 minutes or so and then we were really in the game, bam, bam, bam, everything was clicking and then you could see the players probably had a look at the watch and thought, ‘It’s only 10 minutes, feels like an hour and 50.’ And that’s obviously the moment in the pre-season where it’s clear.
I think both teams see it exactly the same, that’s really cool.
We did a lot of things in the physical aspect of the game today; it was a super-important session as well, to get through this.
But in other moments – that’s how it is, and it’s good because we will not be as tired during the season like we were today – there will obviously be moments where we feel the intensity and then you have to still make the right decisions.
And that’s why maybe if you give me another hour then I will see it as a really good lesson and maybe I will be even happy that we made the mistakes today and not in 10 days.
Apart from that, how I said, I saw a lot of good individual performances, I think really encouraging, really positive, and we can work with that, that’s it.
