David Turnbull spoke to Cardiff City TV to review our 2-2 draw against Johor Darul Ta'zim, the first of two fixtures in Murcia.
The midfielder opened the scoring early in the second half, clinically firing home from the edge of the area.
“It was a good test in tough conditions, because it was really hot," David began. "I thought the boys were excellent and we played the way that the manager has been wanting since we got back into training.
"I’m happy to get a goal as well. Tanatswa [Nyakuhwa] has cut it back, I’ve taken a touch and tried to reverse it. I was happy to see it hit the back of the net.
“Conditions were hard, and I don’t think it will be like that back in Cardiff! It’s nice to be playing out here though and everyone enjoyed it. We did really well and were unlucky to concede at the end."
Rubin Colwill was also on the scoresheet for City, who gained an invaluable workout against the Malaysian treble-winners.
David added: “It’s a bit of an unknown going into the game. We weren’t too sure what they were going to be like, but these teams are always well organised and really good technically.
"I thought it was a good test and the boys dealt with it well. That’s what we need going into the start of the season.
“It’s been a great few days out here so far and we’re looking forward to the game at the weekend. I’m sure it will be another tough one, but we just need to play the way we know that we can and get a good start to the season.
“It was brilliant to see the fans at the end, we could hear them all game. It’s good to see them out here and hopefully we can put on a show for them on Saturday."
