After the game, the Manchester United right-back revealed that it was a day when Portugal played differently than planned and that it was a game that they had to improve on before playing again.
“We were in too much of a hurry. Constantly trying to get into the final area quickly without building good judgment. And conceding a goal early in the second half shook the team up again . Overall we didn’t do it the way we planned. That’s what makes you feel bad.
“We knew if we didn’t have the right balance in defence we would be conceded on the counter-attack and that’s how the first goal came.
“We had to be calmer, make calmer decisions, pass more, make them suffer more and make better decisions. We didn’t do that, but we have to learn from it and improve for next time.”
