“In the game, we didn’t see it, so we needed to use this. That’s what we did today and it was better.

“[Because of our performance] in the end, it was not as difficult as we could have imagined or expected it to be. I think it was the most difficult draw [in the second round].
“It was possible an [upset] could have [happened], so we were really serious. We were very professional and we did our job, so it was good.”
