Simo Valakari Post Match Press Conference Transcript:

Football is a game of small margins and you know we had our chance. We did not take it. Opponent they did take their chances. So no complaints there.

Yes you can say you are disappointed not to take anything out of it. But games are like this they are so tight and whoever managed to make this one action make it you know for them you know they deserve to win. And that's why I said it.
