00:04Yeah, my emotions are very mixed. I'm just proud of the mentality and the attitude.
00:13Round of 32, round of 16 is the moment in tournament where you find a way to win.
00:21We did it with pure mentality, with heart, overcame every obstacle that was thrown at us.
00:30I'm so proud of the mentality and the will of this team. It's a very, very special night for us.
00:37Mixed feelings also because I'm exhausted of course and emotional but also sad because Jordan got injured.
00:46He injured his wrist at the moment in the hospital so it's a quite serious injury.
00:51And it just doesn't fit to the evening that Jordan is now not with us.
00:58I don't know the procedure, what's going on. I just did the press and the doctor told me that he's
01:05in hospital.
01:06I just want to say thank you. If you stayed up and send us your energy, I just want to
01:11say thank you.
01:12Because if they think we don't feel it, we feel it. We feel it 100%. There is so much to
01:18love about this team.
01:19They should just keep pushing, pushing and pushing. We will go now full steam ahead. We get two recovery days
01:26and we will go and use this energy to keep pushing and stay in the tournament.
01:32It felt in the build-up. It never felt like a round of 16. It still now doesn't feel like
01:37a round of 16.
01:38It feels almost like we won a final or something. This last moment where the referee takes the whistle to
01:45his mouth and you know that you overcame it.
01:4840-50 minutes with 10 men in the altitude against the home country, against a strong, strong Mexican team.
01:56This is a moment of joy and it is a heroic performance and a heroic result in the end.
02:04I'm so happy for the players. It ranks on the very, very highest level, of course, also for me to
02:11be part of this, to live this experience the last two days, to be in this country, to see the
02:18people on the side of the streets all the way to the stadium.
02:23Such a special moment and to overcome it against all adversity makes it very special and it will have a
02:31very special place for all of us.
02:33Very strong, very strong team. You started very strong. I still feel a disconnect from our performances that we can
02:42bring and that we are still putting out there in a football level side throughout the first half.
02:49I think we got better in the second half and then we got a red card. I think you play
02:55so fluid. You have so many change of positions.
02:58You all come into the middle of the pitches. You play through the gaps with a lot of confidence. You
03:06turn in these gaps and then you release the speed.
03:08We are still over protecting ourselves and defending, which doesn't help against this Mexican team. So we had to overcome
03:17some difficult moments, especially in the first 20 minutes and then in the first half.
03:24So full credit, I think we played against a strong team in an amazing, amazing stadium in an amazing country.
03:34I feel almost to say sorry that you're out because I saw the passion and the emotion of all the
03:42people on the side of the streets today and yesterday from the bus.
03:46But of course, I'm incredibly proud of my team and our achievement to go back into quarterfinals.
03:54I don't see any chance in an altitude 50 minutes to not invite the pressure against the team that just
04:00plays all in.
04:02We were two goals up. Get a very, very soft penalty from VAR and get another setback.
04:14Before we scored, we played a 4-3-2. So then we scored. Then we conceded a penalty and then
04:24Mexico Blades basically all in.
04:30And we defended in a 5-3-1 until the end. No more changes, just changes from personnel.
04:38And I just have to repeat myself and I have to say it. The attitude, the awareness of our substitutes
04:46is just on outstanding level.
