Castro said after the match: We were able to do better, we defended well, and Paris did not have serious opportunities, their goal came from a counterattack.
He added: We pressed well, but we can still improve, especially in the last third of the stadium, the match was balanced, and we had to maintain the result of the tie, while the technical errors are often the result of exhaustion, and with time it will fade, we faced a strong opponent tonight.
He continued: I am not sure if the changes in Paris or our substitutions have greatly affected the course of the match. It comes as a good match, as well as Ben Hattab and the rest of the players.
He concluded his speech by saying: We are still in a stage of development, and I believe that time will help us improve, I wished to live this experience as a coach on the bench for the first time, and the fans were great, as I applauded the players for their efforts, I am proud to work on a stadium like this.
