"We were 1-0 down and chased and chased. It was a different game in the second half and we got an equaliser in the end.

 

"We made simple mistakes in the first half. We were not feeling comfortable under the pressure of the opponent and we played the wrong way.

 

"If we played like the second half in the first it would be a different game.”

"They played with high pressure and in the first half there were too many mistakes in our build up, so we chose to go more direct in the second half.

 

"We were more direct, we didn't build from behind – we put it up and started from there instead."
