Asked which team to choose, Benitez replied: `Balance is important in football. Personally, I think balance is needed to win the game and win the trophy. Organizational power is more important than anything else, and I think we showed it well in the game. I want you to point out that balance is important with tomorrow's headline. I'd appreciate it if you wrote that we won thanks to the balance," he said with a smile.

Asked to pick the best player he showed when he was active, "All the players showed flashy scenes and quality."I had a conversation with Gerrard, and he said he was sorry that the roads he had seen before were slow and could not be realized. Casillas also made a good save. Lee Young-pyo and Park Chu-young also showed good skills. In particular, Park Joo-ho started on the bench and was put in as a substitute and even scored. I want to pick him as a player who showed the same performance as when he was active" he complimented.




"If you don't like the headline you suggested earlier, you can write the title that Lee Young-pyo and Park Joo-ho made the difference in the game."," he even recommended the title of a new article.

As for the secret to victory "I always write notes. He also ordered a few things at half-time of the game. I focused on this point because I lacked decisive power. Kim Young-kwang appealed that he could be a lucky guy. They were actually put in and won the game. As a result, I think Lee Young-pyo, Park Joo-ho, and Kim Young-kwang are the players who made the difference.
