Nikolai Bunea: “Our defeat is not a tragedy”
I would like to congratulate FC Sheriff on their confident win. I must say that our guys lack strength for the whole match. Moreover, we played in the midfield not very well. We could not join defense and attack. But the guys tried hard and I am grateful for that. Today’s defeat is not a tragedy. There are teams in the championship which can bring us points. Last 15 minutes FC Sheriff started playing by the score and it got easier for us, we could possess the ball and create a few good attacks. But unfortunately we did not make it a goal. We should learn and we do it.
You substituted five players today. Did it happen before the match against FC Sheriff or are they all you have now?
Our team is mainly based on our local football school. We have two 16-year-olds but they took part in two caps against Romania and we decided not to get them involved in today’s game. In general, it is one of our problems. We take players from our football school and they are not ready to play on this level. We have what we have. Of course, we don’t have many substitute players but we don’t want a young player take the field and then lose him for a long time. They are players we keep watch over but it is early for them to play in the first team.
