Fenerbahçe's Slovak defender Milan Skriniar made statements after the goalless draw against Viktoria Plzen in the UEFA Europa League.
"WE KNEW IT WOULD BE A TOUGH MATCH"
Skriniar, in his assessment after the match, said, "We knew it would be a tough match. We played against an opponent who marked us closely. We couldn't hold the ball in the first half, but we played better in the second half, created chances but couldn't convert them into goals. It was important not to concede a goal. We tried to win but couldn't succeed. In terms of effort, we were a bit below our usual level compared to other matches. We could have done better."
"THE REFEREE TOLD ME…"
