Marco Rossi: We must keep improving

Goals from Ádám Szalai, Roland Sallai and Nemanja Nikolic handed Hungary a 3-0 victory in their second FIFA World Cup qualifier away at San Marino on Sunday evening.


Marco Rossi believes the result is acceptable but they must improve in certain areas in their next qualifier away against Andorra on Tuesday:

"There was a little calmness missing from our game in certain situations - we could have been more patient and we needed a little more quality in individual challenges," Rossi said afterwards. " If we'd got the second goal earlier, the rest would have been easier, but we missed that second penalty. The quality of our game improved after the (first) substitutions and it says a lot about the match that their best player was their goalkeeper. Three-nil is an acceptable result but we need to continue on the road on which we've started and we need to continue this campaign with this mentality. Our approach will be the same against Andorra, which will bean even ore difficult match than this one was. We'll have to play on a tight, artificial pitch on Wednesday which will be a difficult thing, so we need to be 100% aware. In this kind of match, you need high concentration from the first second to the last and somehow we'll need to improve in the last 20 metres, because we had many clear chances to score today but we missed something in the area of finishing".

Rossi also confirmed that Roland Sallai and Willi Orbán will join Péter Gulácsi in missing the game versus Andorra, due to a prior agreement with their German clubs.
