AZ head coach Arne Slot summed up the results at the post-game press conference
– Why did your team play two such different halves?
– The main reason is an early goal, which we conceded at the beginning of the second. “Dynamo” then retired, we had to go on the attack and, of course, we exposed the areas behind. This gave Dynamo a chance to fight back, and our opponent converted them.
– Will the potential of the Dynamo, which you saw today, be enough for a successful performance in the group stage of the Champions League if the team can get there?
– It’s hard to say. Probably the Dynamo game in the next round will be easier for this team. But I can say that Dynamo played well today. In the group stage, there may be easier or more difficult matches. Hard to say. Wait and see.
– What did your team lack today to win?
– In the first half we dominated and created more chances than the Dynamo. But sadly, they didn’t score. What did we miss? We must realize our opportunities and not allow the opponent to do what we allow the Dynamo today.
