We moved level on points with fourth-placed Chelsea after a hard-fought 2-1 win over Cardiff City on Tuesday night.
After the match, Bernd Leno spoke to the media and discussed the benefits of playing before our top-four rivals.
Here’s what he said:
on the performance…
I think the most important thing was that we won. It was a tough game and very difficult because Cardiff are very strong on set-pieces and physical, so the most important thing was to win.
on the slow start…
I think we started very well.
