For him, you have to get used to these moments.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cWe asked the players to play naturally, to not feel pressured, to play their best game and put on the best show. We couldn\u2019t do that because I felt like we were afraid of being happy. To achieve happiness, we have to go after it.\u201d We want to be happy.
