He told reporters: We sacrificed a lot throughout the last week, it s so tough these days with the crazy schedules and then coming together for the end of the season, for one last tournament, it s difficult on the body. Mentally, and physically you are exhausted but for our country, we wanted to give everything and then to lose in that way is really cruel.
Again, we probably didn t play our best game but there were definitely some good moments. We felt like we got back into the game and then to kind of be sucker-punched with the late goal. It s heartbreaking. We all wanted nothing more than to make history and to make the people of England proud and we haven t managed to do it. We didn t quite deliver. There are reasons for that. I m sure as a team and going forward we will analyse it.
He added, But yeah, I think, it s still a young group. It s really disappointing because at some point we do have to deliver. But there are experiences and there are things from this tournament going forward. I suppose if you look at everything negatively, nothing will ever change. It s important we pick the positives and the negatives together and find a way to one day get England over the line.
