Roeder: "This Was Our Toughest Test"

Celta Vigo's 1-0 home victory over Fenerbahce ensured Roeder's men would have topped the group anyway, but he was happy his team had done it on their own merits.
Roeder: "This was without doubt the toughest of the four games. Frankfurt played an excellent game and made it very difficult for us.
"The quality of their crossing was excellent and fortunately for us - and this has not happened too often for us this season - perhaps the quality of the finishing did not match the quality of the crossing.
"At times, we had a little bit of good fortune, but after what has happened to us at times this year, no-one will deny me or the team the point that guarantees us winning the group with 10 points.
"It has been a magnificent effort by a squad that is severely ravaged by injuries to finish with 10 points with three wins and a draw."
