"It's the most disappointing defeat. The fans were up for a big night and to disappoint people, it hurts really. The most difficult thing for me is that we have the feeling that we never played in the semi-final.
"We started quite well but the most disappointing thing was that the game was over before it started. That is hard to swallow. We can only look at ourselves. It's very disappointing to fight such a long way and then to give the game away like we did.
