Berra linked up with Celtic defender and stand-in Scotland captain Stephen McManus in the centre of defence and was satisfied with their fledgling partnership. He said: "I thought until the goal Stephen and I were pretty solid. I'm not sure how the press will look at it but the coach will know we played well. There's a lot of positives to take from this for everyone. They had a few crosses from dangerous areas but in the first half our keeper didn't have a save to make. In the second half they had a few more shots but we had a chance as well and the linesman was flagging us off when I thought we were through, although it was hard to see for sure from where I was on the field. They have a lot of players in the front four who are always changing and moving and as a defender that's tough but I don't think they caused us too many problems. They had a lot of possession but overall I don't think they created many chances. In the first half I don't think the keeper had a save to make. Maybe they have to shoot more and be more direct. They're very mobile, a bit smaller and a bit tricky but you just have to stay on your feet because if you dive in that's what they want." | ||||
