He continued: “We’ve played a lot of games. We deserve this win, to finish [for the international break] with this win.
“We work very hard, we have a fantastic manager and fantastic staff. We work with them, we watched the videos [before the match], and we did everything on the pitch – and that's why it's working.
“We sacrificed a lot. We know we have to play all the games. I think we played all the games with [mostly] the same team. We sacrificed for the team, and we know we can depend on each other.
“We have a great group, great staff, a great club – and hopefully we'll keep winning.”
Mateta chose Guéhi’s brilliant curling effort as his pick of the three goals: “I think it's Marc – Marc’s is the best goal! Every game he brings something new for us. He's a fantastic player.”
