They are a dangerous team but we created the moments to win the game.\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>&#8216;He [Rice] was outstanding, and I think the whole team as well. He gave his momentum when the team needed it. Really happy with the performance.<\/p>\n<p>&#8216;When I see a team that has that will to win, that eagerness to go and go, it\u2019s beautiful, and the crowd loves that as well.
