Speaking after the game, he said,” "It's a couple of minutes since the game, so not a lot. But of course, we are disappointed; it's not good enough. It's not good enough from me,” he said, when asked about the mood in the dressing room after another defeat.
"We have to continue. First I'm looking at myself; I haven't been doing things good enough; I haven't been scoring my chances. I have to do better; I haven't been good enough."
Speaking in his confidence level, be said, "Of course, not the best. We know how important confidence is and you can see that it affects every human being. That is how it is, we have to continue and stay positive even though it is difficult."
