Glasner mentioned that winning the game was their primary goal, and while they aimed for a more convincing result, they were pleased with the outcome. He noted that Fredrikstad played a defensive game, which made it difficult for Palace to create scoring opportunities.

The Palace boss admitted that Fredrikstad's starting formation surprised him, as they played a 5-4-1 system instead of the expected 3-5-2 or 5-3-2. He also mentioned that his team adjusted their strategy during the game, trying to create more space by using Justin Devenny as a attacking midfielder and Will Hughes on the left side.

Glasner highlighted the difficulty in finding space in the pocket and the importance of getting crosses into the box. He praised Marc Guéhi's ability to deliver great crosses and Adam's good service from the wings.

In the end, Palace's patience paid off, and Jean-Philippe Mateta's header deflected the ball into the net, securing the win.

Glasner was pleased with the clean sheet and the team's ability to win their first European game of the season.

He emphasized that the team is still at the start of the season and that the second clean sheet in a row is an important achievement.

The team is on track, and Glasner is confident that they will continue to improve and achieve their goals.
