“We had good chances in the first half that we didn’t finish,” Blind said.
“Second half, we got the goal. You can do it both ways, you can risk to score more but maybe give chances away or be happy with the 1-0 and I think we were happy with the 1-0.
“Of course, if there is a chance you are going to take it but you also keep in mind there is a second game and 1-0 away is a good result.
