But given the way we played, all we lacked was a goal to complete our performance. I’m happy with the team, with my own performance individually.. “Obviously we always go to win, we always play to win, but we had great courage to go toe to toe with Dortmund. If there had to be a winner today, I think it would have been Fluminense given everything we created throughout the game.. “I’m proud of our team. We have to be pleased with our performance. That’s football. Even when you create more, you don’t always win. But overall, I’m super happy with the performance.”. By Adeboye Amosu
