"If it takes us until the 60th or 70th minute to get the first goal then that's what has to be done.

"You have to be patient in games. We had a lot of possession against Estonia and wore them down.

"We have been in situations before in games when you don't have the ball and it does take a lot out of your legs.

"You have to concentrate for the whole game and sometimes it's hard to do that."
