SEAToday.com, Jakarta - Gelandang Belanda Xavi Simmons mengaku kecewa berat usai timnya kalah 1-2 dari Inggris di semifinal Euro 2024, Kamis (11/7/2024) dini hari WIB.

“Sulit, kekalahan ini. Saya sangat kecewa. Saya kira rekan setim saya juga begitu. Tetapi ini adalah awal dari perjalanan yang sangat cerah. Saya bangga terhadap tim ini,” kata Simmons seperti dilansir situs resmi UEFA.

Belanda sebetulnya unggul lebih dahulu di laga ini usai Simmons mencetak gol di menit ke-7. Namun gawang mereka justru harus bobol di menit 18 setelah Harry Kane sukses mengeksekusi penaltinya.

Kualitas kedua tim yang selevel membuat pertandingan berjalan alot. Namun Inggris sukses memanfaatkan kelengahan Belanda jelang akhir laga. 

Ollie Watkins yang masuk sebagai pemain pengganti mencatatkan namanya di papan skor. Hingga laga usai, skor 2-1 untuk Inggris tak berubah. 

“Tentu saja Anda ingin menguasai bola dan mengontrol pertandingan. Tetapi kami tahu mereka tim bagus dan juga menginginkan bola,” kata Simmons.

“Sepanjang pertandingan, kami bermain solid, menunggu mereka untuk membuat kesalahan. Kami punya kesempatan menyelesaikan mereka, tetapi pada akhirnya kami kelelahan,” katanya menambahkan.
