talk about the second leg

"I haven't considered the second leg yet, because from now on, I will start thinking about Gokarli, and the game against Benfica will be after this."

talk about Benfica's draw

"This game is difficult for both teams, one team wants to draw, and it's what it wants. The other team is eager to win, but it's not done."

talk about promotion opportunities

"Benfica is a strong team, they proved this in this game, and they know how to control the game at a critical moment. The away game and home game are obviously different, as I said yesterday, if we are eventually eliminated at the Stadium of Light, I will congratulate them, but it's not yet said that the promotion has been After deciding. There is no obvious hot spot at the moment, the chances of promotion are equal. "

Talking about Benfica's sent off

"They controlled the game well through some undetectable fouls and the referee's missed multiple times. We failed to score because we lacked enough offensive means, and we did not have many choices to change the situation of the game. The new players yesterday might have been different if they could play today, but we lacked fast players, so we could not play in different ways. I don't think this was a wonderful game, nor a high-level showdown, but it was indeed a fierce competition. We were facing an opponent who only wanted to keep a draw. Although we wanted to win, we failed to do it."

Talking about the team's positioning ball Not enough threat

"We sent three corners, but none of them crossed the first defensive player. I can tell you that we practiced set pieces in training, but they didn't work well. Even if we had two meters tall players, if the ball couldn't cross the first defensive player, we couldn't create a threat."

Talking about Benfica's defensive strategy

"I have to make it clear that this is not a criticism, of course, teams like Benfica played in this way demonstrated their respect for our team, and I'm glad that they were the team with a stronger potential and stronger team, and they saw our game against Feyenoord. When you take the five-back formation, they reached their goal tactically and got the knot they wanted As a result. I think this is a good result for them, there is nothing to criticize, and I did this when I was in Barcelona. "

praise the team's defense. "We did a good job in defense, Benfica did not create many opportunities. We blocked their counterattacks and blocked their offensive route. Although they sometimes have more possessions, it is because they pass more in the backcourt. It is indeed difficult to oppress tall players, but this game is relatively safe and unthreatened for us. I am more concerned about the weekend game now than Benfica. There are still a few days left, and they will perform differently in the next game, but we have a chance. "
