Felipe Anderson praised Lazio defending in the 2-0 victory away to Dynamo Kiev, “as we were aware we could bring home the result.”
The 2-2 draw in Rome was a disappointment, but the Aquile became the first side to beat Dynamo Kiev on their own turf this season with a 2-0 result.
Lucas Leiva’s header and a Stefan de Vrij tap-in, both from Luis Alberto corners, booked their spot in the Europa League quarter-finals.

“We were solid and worked really hard to keep our shape,” the Brazilian told Sky Sport Italia.
“We knew that if we kept a clean sheet here, we could cause them real problems and were fully aware that we could bring home the result.
“The more mature players in the squad helped the rest keep calm. The Coach always puts his faith in us, regardless of results. Now we have to take it one game at a time and concentrate on Serie A, because one of our objectives is to finish in the top four.
“We want to go as far as possible in the Europa League too.”
