"I want to congratulate my players, because they tried to win," said Branko Ivankovic. "They tried to do everything they could during the 90 minutes, but they did not have luck.

There was a blazing 6 sun, which was not good for our players. But I would like to congratulate Mexico and Portugal because they deserved to go to the second phase 7. They were the best teams of our group, and we have got to recognize that the two best teams of our group are going to the knockout phase."
