00:00 Yes, I think we needed this result. It wasn't a great performance. Of course, we're crazy
00:09 to lead because it's a team that's full of confidence. Very, very, very strong team.
00:18 They are doing fantastic, you know, in the Championship. I think them and of course later
00:23 they are on the top of the table. And of course it was tough for us. Even when you concede
00:28 after a few minutes. But I think the character that we show after this situation, I think
00:38 it's a thing to learn from the team. And of course, on the end so happy because I think
00:43 we avoided extra time and we scored on the end. And we are on the quarter-final, I think
00:50 was our objective. Because it's always tough when you lose a final Sunday in extra time.
00:56 And then it's 72 hours or less to try to recover. I think it's always difficult. But I think
01:05 today the effort was massive again and to say thank you to the players because I think
01:11 they made a fantastic effort.
