“I think we’ve had a very successful first round. We’ve worked hard as a team for these victories and we’re happy to end up as a leader. It gives us home-court advantage, especially in the most important games of the season. We have a young, ambitious and very talented team. We also have a lot of fun playing together and it shows on the pitch. Now we face the most difficult fight. However, the play-offs are a separate chapter of the league and we will fight for more victories. Everyone now has the same chance because the fight starts from scratch, ” said Alanna Smith.
