“I played what we prepared. The boys cope with the pressure. It was a match of everything or nothing and the players managed to take everything, that is to play in the semifinals. They will surprise you, but there will be no party. We will prepare for the semifinal. There will be no glass of champagne. Maybe a glass of juice. I did my duty! After shooting I said I wanted a semifinal. I did it.
We all want a final, but let's see if we get it. Let's see who we play with. We have to make our calculations and see after the medical control with how many we remain. There are some problems, we will see tomorrow. It is important that these children looked fantastic. They looked like a team and managed to win. I'm a team. That's the most beautiful. They must be an example for the next generations.
Follow the match with the Netherlands, yes. Why not deal with?
In the last year, since it is planned to play at this European, I have sought to find a group that has a sacrifice spirit, a team spirit. I hope to see these players on U20 or U21 further. We would be very happy if some of them would reach the big team. The selection is still open, ”said Ion Marin.
