Vincenzo Montella, the coach of the Turkish national football team, who lost to the Netherlands 2:1 in a match in which he was leading 1:0, said goodbye to EURO-2024 after the match.
Publika.az reports that he said that his team was a victim of inexperience.
“We hit more shots than the opponent and we couldn’t evaluate them, the expectation of a goal was more, but we couldn’t evaluate it. We have a scoreboard that we should be proud of.
I think we are one of the top 5 teams. From the day we started EURO-2024, we played with our game spirit. We felt the whole country behind us. We are proud to play with a certain personality. We need to kiss the foreheads of all our players. Because of his ability to read, interpret and adjust matches… We had a dream. We were very close. Sorry, but don’t take this as a disappointment. We should be proud. We have come this far. It could have been more, but unfortunately, football is like that,” he said.
“All neutral countries sympathized with us because of our playing style and character. We must preserve this and take it to the next tournaments. Half of this team will still be in the squad at the European Championship to be held 8 years later,” he congratulated.
