« We want to win in every game, we want to stay at the top of the table but I’m disappointed because we did everything to win the game We are focused, we want to go our way and stay at the top of the table

« Ibra is an example to all of us I’m happy with the way the team is playing and I’m glad he scored I always try to help the team but today I’m disappointed because we did not win «
