Comments

Head coach of Estonia team Frank Bernhardt:

– We are exhausted. This match showed it clearly. Injuries forced me to make many substitutions. The result isn't bad, paying attention, that we didn't have even one forward. The tournament, in general, is rather good by its idea. Nevertheless, I think the time when it's held is quite inconvenient. Football clubs begin the preparation period and hold the players. I have an experimental staff in my team because many strongest players of this age couldn't come. At least 10 men will be changed to the qualification games.

Head coach of Russia team Murat Jumakeev:

– We had to win this match – to come and win. I didn't tell it even. And certainly I didn't put the aim for the draw. I got the great experience, in general. I'm a young coach and have much to learn. Today we had to win without any doubts and go to Bishkek with the raised head. We couldn't get the main aim – to come to quarterfinals, but three wins in a row is a good result. We have much work ahead – to improve attack, final strikes, and actions in defense. Any match on the tournament gives us much experience. I took everything that I could from other coaches.
