“I’m not saying we were better, but in general I am very pleased after four days and where we changed a lot of tactical topics and changed a lot of what we are trying to accomplish, there was such clarity and we were able to execute in the game,” the 48-year-old said after the game (via The Athletic).

“What I found out is I know how hard they work, how committed they are, how intelligent they are, how proud they want to make the fans.”

“They just need to make sure they can find
