"Budö Glimt" head coach Kjetil Knutsen and "Sporting" coach Rui Borges shared their thoughts after the second leg of the Champions League round of 16.
Idman.Biz reports this with reference to foreign media.
Knutsen commented on his team's 0:5 defeat as follows:
"We didn't play football, we performed thinking about the outcome of the game and this burden was too heavy for us. "Sporting" came out without hesitation, while we thought about the results with every touch of the ball. This made us passive. I can't say exactly why this happened, but we rarely showed any constructive game. We were very far from who we are".
"Sporting" head coach Rui Borges said that he was proud of his team after the victory:
"We knew what "Budö Glimt" was capable of, but today we saw the best "Sporting". From the first training session, a sense of unity was felt within the team. The energy was completely different and our desire to do something special was endless. With the support of the fans, I felt that this would be a special evening. Even if we had won 2:0, I would still be proud of my team. This result is the result of the belief, determination and intensity we put into the game".
