“It was a great match, especially after the second goal. Before that, the team ran out of speed. Our traffic was neither fast nor vertical.
When we started playing vertically in the middle, we really hurt our opponent. After the second goal, the team was more confident, stretched the game, played between the lines, with a change of gear, good last passes.
Josh (Maja) is one of our best players in finishing. Whenever he works well on the first control of the ball, he does not need a lot of space to finish well.
