He added: “The way we reacted to the goals we received, we... We did not give up, we remained committed to our style of play and continued to look for opportunities available to us in attack.”

He stressed: “It is incredible to finish this round at the top of the group, which is the most difficult thing based on UEFA’s dealings. We started with an unlucky own goal against France, and we dealt with all the pressure that was put on us to win over Poland, then finishing this round as leaders of the group, which is very special.”

He concluded: “It is clear that they must continue doing what we have been doing. This match showed us the kind of alternatives we have available when players, who are seen as irreplaceable, do not appear in the starting lineup, when you look at the performance that the players provide.” In the starting lineup, you have to take your hat off to them.”
