“Any team could have won because there were loads of chances created by both teams and that’s football for you and there’s nothing you can do about it. Our initial plan was to come and win but it’s still not lost,” he positively remarked.
“Our hopes are very much alive, we still have two more games and hopefully we are able to make it count and get a continental shot, I’m so certain that we can make something surprising for our fans with our determination.”
