“We started off with a good goal, a good start, we went 1-0 up. They obviously got their goal 1-1. So it was a pretty even game,” the 27-year-old told UEFA’s official website.
“They had chances, we had chances. Ultimately 1-1 away from home is a positive result so next game we’ll look to hopefully be in the final.”
The two teams will clash in the second leg of the Europa League semi-final encounter at the Gewiss Stadium next week Thursday.
The winner will face either Bayer Leverkusen or AS Roma in the final.
