4-0 and it was an easy win. We never look threatened and should be already 3-0 up in half time. Nevertheless the whole team worked very hard as everybody know they need to play well or else someone is going to take his place. We will be in the Champions League now and every team will hope they will avoid meeting us and get trashed by us.
Now that all 4 strikers opened their account, the competition would be more severe and this could only improve team performance.
