“We wasted 45 minutes. Although we talked about what to expect from the opponent, my players were very individual, did not fight as a team, and I did not see from them what we discussed before the match. In the second half we played better football, but with few ideas, “Especially near the opponent’s penalty area. In the end we fought to score a goal, but one mistake was fatal.”
“I told my players, we have to learn to win games like this, we have to play football patiently, and even if we don’t play well, we always have to stay disciplined.”
