Carvalhal’s post-match quotes

After the game, Portuguese Manager was in no doubt that his lads deserved to win.

‘Compared to our previous matches, we played great tonight. As I’ve often said, we are a new team and getting better every other day. You can’t create a championship team overnight because it takes time. With a little patient and hard work, we’ll get there sooner than everyone expects.
 
Despite their busy schedule, my players showed the heart and desire we’ve been anxiously waiting for. Dynamo Kiev is a well-organized and formidable side, but we did everything right out there and deserved to win tonight. I am now more confident that we’ll achieve better results in our remaining Europa League matches and qualify from this group with our heads high.’
