"
- Are we facing a tactical balance challenge?
"It's always difficult to find a balance against a intensive defensive team. We could have handled better in some cases, but it's complicated. We are still young teams in the growth stage, but this international week once again delivered a positive answer - six points are more important than anything else, which has taken a big step towards the World Cup advancement.
