Today, the defence played quite well, how confident are you about your new partnership with Branislav Ivanovic? 

We examined the opposition before the match and knew what they were good at. But they scored from a corner, there was confusion in our penalty area and they scored. They didn't create anything else and it was their only chance. 

Was it tough for you at the beginning of the match? 

Firstly, they were playing at home and came at us. Our task was to play calmly, to control the course of the match. The first ten minutes we absorbed the pressure and then things became calm.
