"In the first half, we were better. But, indeed, we didn't create many chances even we had more possession that time. I feel that we have a pleasant first half. In the second half, I think that SC East Bengal improved and maybe also because we were a little nervous because we wanted to win this match, some bad passes and little misunderstanding in the team. After the draw, we started attacking again, and we had some clear chances to score the second and maybe another goal," Garcia concluded during the post-match presser. You can watch it entirely above.
