"I think that as the first game of this tie, we are the strongest team. I don't know if the opponent's head coach will agree with me or not."
Idman.biz reports that the head coach of "Celje" Albert Riera said this at the press conference held after the first match of the first qualifying round of the UEFA Europa League.
The Spanish specialist stated that nothing has been resolved in the tie yet: "Fatigue was felt in my team. But we were only thinking about victory on the field. The match could have ended 2:2. What happened on the field showed that we were better, stronger. We have 90 minutes ahead of us. Nothing is over yet. The result of the first game doesn't matter. We need to calm down. Psychologically, we will start the second game from 0:0."
It should be noted that the return match between the teams will be held on July 17 in Slovenia.
