Marco Rossi: We improved in the second half

Hungary's head coach was a little disappointed at conceding a late goal in the 4-1 victory against Andorra, but he was even more concerned about Zsolt Kalmár's knee injury.


"We were aware that we could face a difficult match if we didn't focus properly or weren't motivated enough," Rossi said after the match.

"We did well in this respect, but the first half was still difficult. Andorra defended well and tried to press us high up the pitch, something we allowed to happen by passing backwards a lot. Admittedly, this caused some confusion at first. Our game improved a lot in the second half and we played balls into better areas. I wanted to win without conceding a goal, but Zsolt Kalmár's injury is much more painful than Andorra's goal, because I'm afraid he won't be able to play in the European Championship. We did well against Poland and would have deserved to win that match, and now we've done what was necessary, which is not always an easy task - for that, we just need to look at Germany and Portugal, who both dropped points in qualifiers during the past week".
