Post match: Philippines vs Iran
Philippines Coach Ernie Nierras:
"We know that we have a strong team. We have a system that is
capable to score. We have confidence what we are doing and we know we can win
game. Today we prove that our system works,"
"We are the only team that is playing 3-6-1. When we do that
people raises eyebrows in the world. This is the same system that we use in the
professional team (men's) in Philippines. This is something that we did not
because it is gaming. This is the playing style of the Filipinos. We have a lot
of midfielders and we take advantage of that,"
Iran coach Helena Costa:
"The disattention of my
players in the first four minutes decided the match immediately. Then it was
difficult to grow up the emotion of the players," said the Portuguese
coach.”
“Here weather is not suitable for us. Humidity is very high and our players were
getting tired very quickly.
“After conceding three goals, our player’s emotion was bad. They tried
to recover in the second half but failed.”
