“We finally won a dirty match, these are victories that give a lot. If we had had this electricity in other games, we probably would have brought home more points. May this afternoon be a guiding light for our future, we really needed a victory like that.

“The team’s path since I arrived is certainly positive. Then, of course, something is always missing but we were good at putting everything into it today,” he stated.
