Icelandic team player Jon Thorsteinsson, after the defeat to Ukraine (0:2), stated that the result was a serious blow for the team, although the game itself, in my opinion, was far from a failure.

“This is, obviously, a great disappointment, and I’m even embarrassed, I can’t add anything more. Particularly cover what we lost to them again - to avoid making the situation even worse.

It seemed to me that we would remain reliable in defense. It’s possible that we didn’t create as many chances in the attack as we wanted, and sometimes played a few minutes lower on the field.

The Ukrainians practically didn’t make any goals, and they scored their first goal from a set piece. Their goalkeeper also made two miraculous saves, and not a lot of hours passed between them.

It seemed to me that our opponents did not create many chances, and in defense our game was miraculous right up to the goal we conceded,” said the footballer in the mbl commentary. is.

The draw for the European and Intercontinental Playoff will take place on November 20.
