“I think it was a good game from our side.

“We could have scored more but in the end, the win was really important and I’m really happy.

“I think you have to stay sharp for 90 minutes [against West Ham] because it’s only one moment they can counter and then they get a goal. But we did really well defensively – at the end, they scored one and we scored two. We did great.”
