“The players are disappointed of course because they are young but we must support them because they need to continue their careers. We should work on their development because I believe that some of these players will eventually move to the senior national team,”

He adds; “I am happy with the performance of our players and in such competitions, even if you lose, you gain something by developing the players for the future.”
