group after Manchester City and Borussia Dortmund played a draw.
"Regardless of Sunday's game, the important thing was to get the three points today, we were looking for. Addition, the tie between City and Dortmund think it's good for us."

"Winning is good and losing would be bad, no getting around it. We are aware of the disadvantage we have and we will go for the win, that's for sure. But first we recover and savour it."
