National Team Coach Vincenzo Montella made a statement after the Montenegro defeat.
The Italian coach said, “We are all very sorry. We deserved the leadership in the Nations League. Compared to the last match, we had the leadership we deserved. Football was played on a field that was too bad to be called a football field. We could barely stand on the sidelines, I cannot imagine our players. I thank my players for their hearts and struggles.” “Congratulations. This was not the result we wanted. We are very sorry.” he said.
“I TOLD YOU IT WON’T BE EASY”
Montella continued, “Actually, I said before the match that it would not be an easy match. We fought until the end. This was a fighting match. We tried to play football on a ground that was so bad that football could not be played. We went for it until the last moment, but the opponent was one step ahead. We are sorry for the result, but my players He tried until the end.” he continued.
Vincenzo Montella: “You can’t even try to play football at these levels, on this type of field. I am more proud of my players. They fought until the end. Many of them could not come to this camp in their best condition. Some of them could not play, some had injuries. With a defeat, we lost our balance and ignored everything we did.” “For the last year, we have shown everyone how high our competitiveness is.” he said.
“AGAINST MY PHILOSOPHY”
The 50-year-old coach asked, “If he wanted to change a decision, what would he change?” “It’s easy to talk about it afterwards, but we could lower the technical capacity and increase the physical capacity. However, this would be against my game philosophy.” He responded with these words:
