Speaking to the media after playing 45 minutes against Manchester United in Dublin, Anton Stach shared his thoughts on the game.
In front of a large contingent of traveling Leeds United fans, the Whites played out a 1-1 draw against our Lancashire opponents at the iconic Croke Park stadium.
“I think it was a good game for pre-season,” the German began, summarising the match.
“Of course we would have liked to win on penalties at the end, but whether we win or lose on the penalties, it was a good game and preparation for the season.
“I think we can keep our focus and we can be proud on the last games we did, also against good opponents [throughout the summer friendly matches]. We try to build up some confidence and then we can look ahead for the season.
“Last year was my first season, and it was incredible. The crowd, the Leeds fans, they were amazing. So it was not surprising for me that they were so loud again today. And I hope for this also during the season, so that we have a nice and really good season.”
