Oh, it's massive, it's really massive,
it was so difficult, and if you said it before the game
everybody acted like you would not be allowed to say it,
going to Cardiff and we have to work there,
so we spoke a lot about this game, how special it is,
how special the situation is for the opponent,
so just to make clear what we have to do today,
it was not a game for playing around, it was a game for 100 per cent fight
and a battle of wills, if you want, who wants it more,
and difficult circumstances,
all these circumstances are in favour of the team that doesn't have the ball often,
the ball didn't roll like normal, everybody saw it.
I can speak about it, because a few guys from Sky said they spoke about it as well,
so maybe it's allowed. It doesn't make football easy when the pitch is dry.
It makes it dangerous as well, for injuries,
but it doesn't make it easy. We had the ball most of the time,
but still created three brilliant chances which we'd probably usually finish off.
Didn't do that, that can happen, then you have to stay patient and calm,
you need to stay 100 per cent focused on each set-piece
because that's what they go for.
It's pretty difficult, and I think the big chance they had
the ref told me it would have been a foul on Ali,
so it wouldn't have been a goal.
But we had the ball anyway, so all good.
We defended the set-pieces brilliantly and used a few of our own set-pieces,
in a fantastic way, the boys were so smart,
used the experience from the first half for that corner in the second half.
It's not from the training ground it's actually from the dressing room at half-time
when the boys decided to do that - I love that.
Second goal, counter-press three or four times I think,
win the ball, and then I think there's no doubt about it,
if a defender uses his hand five times, it's a penalty.
Milly finished it off brilliantly... And even Fabinho should be OK.
He was a bit dizzy, and in this game you needed to be 100 per cent, or out.
So in that moment he couldn't say he was 100 per cent, so we made that change.
Again, after a minute! But he's fine.
Yeah, as you know we have put a lot of emphasis on set-pieces,
but we were not bad first half,
we knew that Cardiff are outstandingly strong at offensive set-pieces,
but from time to time they have problems with defensive set-pieces,
and the boys obviously found out that if you make all these runs on the pitch,
no camera angle is as good as your own view,
and obviously they decided to play that ball and Gini made the run,
with all the blocks, it's man-marking, huh?
If three players are properly man-marked and you bring a fourth or fifth one
then he is free, and obviously Gini was free in that moment.
But still, you have to hit the ball like that - brilliant goal, I loved it.
Yeah.
Yeah! We had to improve [in set-pieces], we didn't score a lot in the past,
big, big compliments to all the boys involved in that -
analysts, Pete Krawietz, they put a lot of work in that,
but the boys have to do that, and they like it if it's successful.
They will do pretty much everything
if somebody tells them, "You'll score more often."
Do you like them taking that initiative?
Yeah, it doesn't happen too often, so I like it even more.
But of course, players talk to each other, and if you have two or three routines
around set-pieces then you try all of them
and figure out what causes them the most problems,
then you try that one again, and if you're not happy with all of the things on that day
then you have to try something different. That's difficult to decide on the pitch
because you need too many players involved,
it's like taking a proper timeout to say, "Now we'll do it like this",
but at half-time it is possible.
So they did it, brilliant, I love it.
No.
It's no problem, we've been in the sport long enough,
in the end it's like a bill - the price is on it, you look at it and then you pay it.
At the end we will see how many points we have,
and then we get what we get for it.
If you are only motivated to win the Holy Grail then something is wrong with you.
We are motivated because we play for this club,
because we want to win football games,
because we enjoy the ride together with our fans - that's the truth.
