No regrets for Nuno

Nuno may have been wishing he had fielded a stronger side, but he did not suggest as such.

He added: “It was about the schedule, the game, what we have in front of us, solutions for the team and trying to find other options.

“It’s not about regrets, we decided on the moment we had and because we wanted to find other things for the team.

“Sometimes it works out, sometimes it doesn’t and today it didn’t. There are many things we have to decide. Everyone needs to do more, when tough moments come we need the best from everyone.

“It’s a frustrating night for us, we are out of the competition because we didn’t compete so well – we conceded easy goals.

“We didn’t create enough and we will keep on trying and looking to improve. We wanted to go through, it was everyone’s wish.”
