And Macca was not a surprise to me that he was both times our goalscorer because he played with the mentality you need to play in these games and that's why he was twice in that situation to finish."The first half was really poor, the worst we've played until now I think, but the second half was much better, controlled the game much more, had our chances already earlier in the second half. And in the first half, although we were really poor, we did not concede a lot and we defended really well in our box."
