And how do you interpret whistles from the stands ?: “This team has character and personality to get out of this situation. We have already proven it. Now it will not be less. Whistles I did not hear anything in the last game. On the contrary. With the goals, I heard the crowd cheering more than ever. It is very important to us and they know it. I didn’t hear any whistle ”.

I have a goal tomorrow and I’m going to go for it, regardless of other games. “
