Then they were trying, but my players fought hard. "Rostov are a very difficult team to play against because they defend with a block of 10 players. It was difficult for everyone. Atletico Madrid, Bayern, Anderlecht, Ajax, Sparta Prague, Man United – everyone found it difficult to play against them.  "They are very organised, big discipline, and they can be dangerous on the counter-attack."</blockquote>
