What a fantastic performance both mentally and physically by our team. One thing I would like to say is what an absolute fantastic signing we got in January in the name VVD. The pressure we got from the onslaught from City in the first half we really needed his presence as prior to him being with us we would have crumbled. We have had some very good players emerging Robbo, Taa, Karius, but I can't fail to give him a lot of credit for the whole thing. Over 2 legs we restricted one of the most attacking teams in Europe to just one goal. We needed some luck that is always needed by every team on their way to success.
Man of the match for me was Salah. It wasn't one of his best games but he killed their hopes in one moment, his first moment and with so much attacking talent on the pitch and on their bench it was Mohammed Salah that destroyed their fight in a single moment.
Also I'd like to give a special praise to our midfield as they were clearly against a far superior opposition it was so much day light between the two midfielders, but our men didn't put their heads down and continued to fight for everything even when they had moments and were getting bossed by them, it was a lot of grit.
