“We had a bit of fortune with Harrison’s goal, but we were disappointed to only be 1-0 up at half-time.
"But they also had chances so we could have done better in both boxes. Bilo made some good saves. He was very good on the ball as well.
"We probably could have managed the game better and they came after us, but we saw it out. We made some big defensive blocks and won most of our duels.
