I need to be happy with the players in this difficult scenario. "
Coach further spoke about the match in detail, " Apuia and Alberto were missed because of injuries. Hopefully, we can play the rest of the matches with the full squad. We had clear chances to score the second goal. The team was smart when the conditions didn't allow us to play the way we wanted to play. We adapted quickly and took better advantage of the goal we scored in the First Half. "
