""It's not an excuse at all because both teams deal with that, but that's just ... that can't happen. That was a bit strange. It's difficult. A lot of times you get the ball and you look up, you can't really lock in on something. You only can base it off the color of the shirt. That's how it works. And when it's very similar, it's difficult. Everyone was a bit shocked.""
""Of course, I'm disappointed. I have to convert my chances. They're not easy opportunities, but at certain times I expect to do better, without a doubt. We have to beat teams like this if we want to have a chance of going far at the World Cup.""
