Intro:

Reaction from Sevilla, where Spain beat Ukraine 1-0 in a UEFA Euro 2016 qualifying Group C game

Script:

SOUNDBITE: (Ukrainian) Mykhaylo Fomenko, Ukraine manager:

"To answer the first question, yes, I had to substitute players due to injuries. And then yes, we made some mistakes, we were a little worried, nervous, and some other possible causes that didn't allow us to get what we came here to get."

SOUNDBITE: (Spanish) Vicente del Bosque, Spain manager:

"Spain were strong in the first half, and less strong in the second half, where Ukraine played better. They had their chances to score, we also did, but they were especially dangerous in the game in the air."

SOUNDBITE: (Spanish) Vicente del Bosque, Spain manager (on goal scorer Alvaro Morata):

"He had a good first half like the rest of the team, he moved a lot, he was lucky to make a good move and receive Koke's pass and that gave us the goal. Then I thought I had to substitute him, even though he was one of our tall players, and he was being our reference in attack, and also in defence to stop them from winning high balls, but I chose to send a player who can move more, and Morata was a little tired."
