"I think it was a difficult game first half. They controlled the game in the opening 45 minutes but didn't have clear chances other than one. We were a little under pressure but the second half was different," said Benitez.
"We were controlling it and the quality of our passing was much better. We had plenty of possession and were much better going forward.
"The difference at the end of the game was Torres. We know he can score these kind of goals but the team as a whole needs to play well.
"It was also important that we kept a clean sheet."
