Brazil Coach Reflects After Argentina's Defeat: "It's Difficult..."

Brazil were beaten in the early hours of Tuesday by Argentina in a superclásico that left the Brazilian coach disappointed.

“It's a remarkable defeat. (...) In all my years and experience in soccer, it's perhaps the most delicate moment. I never give up,” commented Dorival, in statements at the post-match press conference, quoted by Globo Esporte.

“I recognize Argentina's moment, the difficulties we would have had, but it's natural that I expected a different reaction from the team because of everything that had been happening in our group on a daily basis,” he continued.

“The Argentinian team was superior in every way. I even apologize to the Brazilian fans, because the expectation was very different from what we saw, from what we presented,” he finished.
