“I thought it was there,” he added. A lot of improvement in the other two matches, we found players in the box and created more chances - another step in the right direction.”
He continued: “I can raise the frustration of the fans because of the lack of exploitation.” Opportunities, but this is football, it is not an easy game at all.”
And about the substitutions that were made: “They made a big impact today, 100%, and the credit goes to "It's not easy to go out and not get as much playing time as they want - it's great for the spirit of those around us."
He concluded: "I'm a firm believer in winning over anyone. The national team is ahead of us. We need to step up when it is necessary and we will work hard on that in training.”
