'We could go down in light of the fact that it is the latest possible time, particularly with a considerable measure of youthful players, however from first moment of additional time we attempted to win. We had two arrangements, whining or say, "Approve, we confront that circumstance and push ahead." We went ahead once more.'

'It was a fabulous diversion. Every one of the situations were conceivable until the end. The punishments were not for us. Obviously it is a mistake. Every one of the players put forth a strong effort.

'It was aggressive diversion between two great groups, it is empowering for what's to come. We need to keep this abnormal state of execution. It is a decent reaction after the last amusement.'
