00:00I think that was crucial today. I was happy with the first-half performance,
00:04I was happy with the start. There was only one minute I wasn't happy with,
00:08and that was the minute we conceded a goal, but that was the only thing
00:11we didn't do well during the first half.
00:13We created from the start our chances, we threatened them a lot,
00:17brought a lot of balls into the box, where we arrived with many players.
00:21I saw Robbo many times in front of goal, so I could not have asked for that much more,
00:27but I think it was crucial to score the 1-1 just before half-time,
00:32because that lifted us up and you could see that immediately in the second half,
00:37where we just kept on going what we did.
00:40And it's not only helpful for us, but I think it also works the opposite way for Leicester.
00:47They felt like, OK, now it's going to be tough.
