Fenerbahce boss Aykut Kocaman has praised his side after they defeated a 'quality' Lazio team yesterday.

Pierre Webo and Dirk Kuyt gave the 47-year-old's men a 2-0 lead in their Europa League quarter-final first leg.

But the former Ankaraspor Coach has admitted that Ogenyi Onazi's sending off changed the match.

“We played against a quality opponent,” he told a Press conference. “It was a very important win.

“We did not do anything really positive in the first half, but you have to look at the game as a whole.

“We had the majority of the ball after Onazi was sent off.”
