"Always games like this on the pitch go very slow," van den Berg told 麻豆约拍 South's Ben Moore. "The moment we scored the penalty it took a while before the final whistle came.

"We managed to pull it off and I am very proud of our achievement."

"It is difficult when a team plays full on attack like that, you have to be a bit lucky to play on the counter."
