Qatar coach Félix Sánchez talked about his team's defeat in the opening match of the 2022 World Cup against Ecuador (0-2).
In the next match of the group stage the Qataris will meet with the national team of Senegal. The game will take place on November 25, beginning at 13:00 GMT.
We fought, but the opponent had their own plans. If we want to put up a fight, we have to defend and play more organized. It's not that we don't want to attack, but I wish we had possessed the ball more effectively. The opening match atmosphere pressured us in the beginning, it had a big impact on the game. If it wasn't for VAR, we would have lost after three minutes from the start of the match. The opponent has outplayed us in every aspect of the game.
