“I’m happy with how this season went. Of course, I appreciate the duels we once had, but now I appreciate above all the successes that we can celebrate as a team.
“Not winning 45 times in a row? It happened to me too. Every now and then I managed to win. Well, periods like this can happen, but I prefer not to think about it.
