Recognizing that the blue and whites were slow to enter the game, the Spanish forward praised the intensity in the second half and admitted that "this victory was very important for us". "We deserved to have more than one point before this game and we have to stay on this path to get more wins", Samu added.

Two different halves
"We were slow to get into the game, but fortunately we scored the first goal before halftime and that was very important. In the second half, we were more intense and fortunately we got the victory."

The German strategy and the goal
"They play with three central defenders and there was less space, but I think I did a good job, I was able to score and help the team."

Three vital points
"This victory was very important to us. Winning was all that mattered and I think we did a good job. We deserved to have more than one point before this game and we have to stay on this path to get more wins."
