Facing Austria, Foda: I’m pleased with the team, but they are a little disappointed

Kosovo national team coach Franco Foda spoke to Klan Kosova after the match against Austria.

Foda said he was pleased with the team’s performance, noting that the players carried out on the field what had been discussed before the match.

“Definitely a good, great game; the players did on the field what we had discussed with them. I’m very pleased with the team, with every one of them. What we may have been waiting for for a long time—a win—did not come in the end today”, he said.

However, the coach acknowledged that the players are disappointed, as their aim was to win.

“The players are definitely a little disappointed, but we have to look at it this way: I came here two years ago, and back then we might have been very happy and delighted even with a 1–1 against Austria. Today, the players are disappointed too”, Foda said.
