- Alexander, what can you say about this match?

- I don't know what to say. It's a shame to look into the eyes of the fans who came to support us today. I can only say that we will do everything in the next match to please our fans again. I don't know what else to comment on. The main thing now is that we are very ashamed in front of the fans.

I'm sure all the guys realize this. In the next game, we only need to win to have any chance of getting out of the group. Everyone understood that the first game was very important, but today what happened happened.

- What was the key episode of the match?

- I don't know what the turning point was, to be honest. It's always unpleasant to concede first. Somewhere we lacked something, maybe aggression up front. The head coach will tell us what we did wrong and we will be able to get a positive result in the next match.

- What did the coach say during the break?

- That we should play more aggressively up front, because controlling the ball is one thing, but we needed to create chances. Unfortunately, we didn't have that today.
