- "It was a painful defeat, I have no doubt. Everyone has hope when one starts a competition aimed at winning. In the end only one wins and the other remains behind. Unexpectedly it was us today and now we have to keep moving forward."
- "We have to focus on the matches that we have left and try to win because we have not won anything in either of them. Obviously a defeat hurts a lot. It hurts us and hurts our people."
