00:00We'll start with Phil when you're when you're ready Phil

00:11Is that a tale of what could have been given me, you know the chances that you were could maybe should have taken

00:19Good evening. Of course, we are we have to be really an app with the result

00:23It is the first thing that and is the feeling that we have we all share in our dressing room

00:29And happy the result of course looking for the performance and the way the players they

00:34They stuck with the plan. They executed really well the plan and then they perform really performance wise was a

00:41very good one and

00:42quest looking for the chances that we did create throughout the game and

00:47Comparing with the with city, of course, we deserve more from from the game and but that's football

00:52Of course, we have to keep working is a process

00:55For the next time we have this type of chances in a game like this one

00:59for us to be able to score more and to be able to get a different result coming here at the ad and

01:03score twice and to have probably more for clear chances to score is not easy to achieve and we did it and

01:11The bit difficult the first ten minutes of the game the way city started strong wasn't a bit difficult for us to adjust

01:17After that moment and the first chance we created with Adam when we won with the Edison

01:21The game changed a little bit not in terms of control, of course city at the control of the game

01:26We defend a little bit deeper than normal

01:29we like to do it and

01:30was the plan to even if you don't have

01:32That plan city has the capacity to push you back and we we did we change the position of Alex and Adam

01:38because we wanted to explore some things in the in the way they set up themselves when they are in positional attack and we did

01:44It and after that moment, of course, we started to control it a bit better

01:48More more possession from them as normal a little bit deeper as I said before

01:53But we are always able to to make some dangerous counter-attacks and to create super team in that moments

01:58And it is of course, we first chance without them. They had one good chance with the

02:03Ingrid Allen before our our chance to after the chance with Adam who scored one nil and after straightaway

02:09We had the chance to score the two nil and and to have even bigger impact on on the game

02:14And first for us after comes equalizing in a deflection in a second action of defensive corner for us and I

02:23Think we are really more punished by the way

02:25The way you started second half really and concede the goal the first minute and the way we did it

02:30because we adjust some positions in the in the off time about the position of our two midfielders because I

02:37Believe that we are too deep in some moments with our two midfielders and the beginning of the second half

02:41You can see the goal in the same way

02:43This is the things that we clearly have to improve and to learn but overall and looking for all the picture, of course

02:49Proud of the way you play the way we are brave the way we we did it

02:53But we have to be really an app with ourselves about the result

03:01Once the sort of initial

03:04Frustration sort of dies down, you know

03:06So so very rare to see a team created that many outstanding chances here. Yes. Yeah

03:12Will you be really encouraged?

03:14Do you think going forward by the quality of your performance particularly on the transition and how frequently you actually cut city open?

03:22Yes, definitely

03:24As I said, we have to two ways to look to and to analyze the game

03:28Of course better from our eyes and the way we perform the way you created chances, of course

03:33And throughout the game we have to be really proud as I said two goals years for two goals here and we have more

03:38for clear chances three of them just want to be one with with others and of course we have to be and

03:44gives us the

03:46Really the feeling we don't need this type of situation

03:49But that we are in the right direction and we are we are growing and the process is there and we are going

03:54And that is not just in transition because even after the I think that the two one and the three one the way you did

04:01Control the game on the ball

04:02It's not easy to see CT defending so deep like they defend last 15 minutes of the game

04:06we are able to be patient and to to have the ball even even our first goal the way you

04:11Were the we circulate the ball and the way you were in our position attack

04:15They're really high on the pitch and we are able to do it

04:17We have been showing that most of the times in the home games to be to be honest and we did it

04:2215 minutes

04:23we we are the control of the ball to see a city finish with the

04:27Three centrally fans with five at the back and all the stuff that show that we are

04:30We are capable even on the ball to create problems for them. Not just in transition. But yes gives us the

04:36the

04:37Courage we know that what we are capable to do

04:40but it gives us the confidence more than the courage to keep going the direction that we want to to go and to keep and

04:45And to stick with our with our philosophy as a team

04:49Any further questions?

04:52Thank you
