Favre: We kept calm and didn't lose our nerve, we're happy with this week

Bremen boss Florian Kohfeldt spoke of a "decent home game" for his team, and Lucien Favre praised the fact that his team kept calm. Here's what the two head coaches had to say at the press conference.

Lucien Favre: "It was a very difficult game, especially in the first half. Bremen started out cleverly and pressed aggressively, and we couldn't get our link-up play going. We kept calm and didn't lose our nerve. After 30 minutes, it (Bremen's play – editor's note) was no longer as intense as it was at the beginning. After we made it 1-0, we controlled the game better, then at 2-0 it was far easier for us, as it was practically over then. We're happy with this week."

Florian Kohfeldt: "We played a decent home game in the first half, and defensively we didn't allow them many chances. I saw passion, I saw fight, I saw good defensive stability over long periods. We didn't have the offensive power we've had before."
