"It was an intensive match. PSV won in Liverpool so they're not a team who you just brush off. We were also playing against the crowd, but I think we did that very well. We had opportunities in the first half, so did PSV, but overall I thought it was a very good display by us. The team's reaction to the defeat against Augsburg, and also to the obstacles we faced today, is positive. That shows the character of this team."
"I'm really happy about my goal. My mum's already sent me a thousand WhatsApp messages. Most of all I'm happy to be back on the pitch. My focus is now on the next game and on continuing to raise my level. It was really good, except at the start of the second half - I briefly forgot how to play football then. I had some good actions and I'm gradually getting back into it. When I'm on the pitch, I just want to have and produce lots of energy and focus. Today was a good day. We've not let our level drop for many games now. We learned that against Augsburg, when we drop off slightly. It was an important win today. Now the crunch games are coming and it's important that we take our level up another notch for these matches."
"Our versatility is what marks us out."
