I think Benfica did very well in the first half, in which we made some mistakes. We went into the break 3-1 down and we felt we had to change something to get back into the game. The team's mentality , who always believed in herself. If one point was good, three is fantastic”, Hans-Dieter Flick began. He continued: “The most important thing is to have time to train. This is very important. We can see mistakes in the game, but if we don't have the opportunity to correct them in training, everything is more difficult. It's very difficult. We try to move on to next phase of the Champions League.
Hans Flick praised Benfica and when asked about the work of the refereeing team, he replied:
