"Second half, a lot of crosses came into our box and we controlled everything there.
"In the end I'm very pleased. Two games, six points - not bad.
"As their home game they tried to put some more risk on the pitch. Frank tried with the subs.
"At half-time we had problems [with fitness and injury]. We knew they would put more and more risk and there would be big space behind the back and we used that."
On Lucas Gourna-Douath: "He also struggled with some moments because he didn't pass all of pre-season. He played good. He's a good young player and we can improve him. It's great experience for him.
"We will grow every game. It's a new experience for us, even for me. We will try to improve some things and maybe play even better."
