Reaction from Czech Republic head coach Pavel Vrba and the Netherlands head coach Guus Hiddink on Tuesday after a 2-1 win for the Czechs in the 2016 European Championships qualifier in Prague.
Script:
SOUNDBITE (Dutch) Guus Hiddink, the Netherlands head coach:
"My conclusion is that it is not important the system or formation you play, 3-5-2 or 5-3-2 or 4-3-3, if you make some naive and silly mistakes then it's not the issue of the formation."
SOUNDBITE (Dutch) Guus Hiddink, the Netherlands head coach:
"It's a very bitter feeling that we have, after a few dangerous situations, we have conceded in the last seconds of match, and in such way that we lose the match."
SOUNDBITE (Czech) Pavel Vrba, Czech Republic head coach:
"We were prepared on both possible Dutch game formations. In Brazil, they (the Dutch) were quite successful with changing their systems. We were ready to react on both 5-3-2 and 4-3-3 formations."
SOUNDBITE (Czech) Pavel Vrba, Czech Republic head coach:
"We will do our best to qualify for the European Championships and these three points are quite important for us, however we still have lots of games ahead. Today's result of Iceland beating Turkey 3-0 shows that our group will not be very easy."
