“It’s tough, but that’s what this competition is all about.  I think we did a lot of things right tonight and created goal opportunities, but we lacked the final push that we needed in order to equalise, which we truly deserved to do.”  The German-born coach stated in the pre-match press conference that this game would be decided by the small details: “We lost the match due to an oversight that led to the rival goal.”
 
Schuster doesn’t want to talk about referee Undiano Mallenco’s decision-making on the pitch tonight: “It’s very easy to talk about the referee now, but I prefer to think that we didn’t convert scoring opportunities into goals, which is why we lost this evening.”
