Marseille : Germany’s football team head coach Joachim Loew said that too many things went wrong for his side during the 0-2 defeat to France in the European Championship semi-final here.
Even though Loew admitted the mistakes by his players, he claimed that his side was better than the French.
“Too many things went wrong but I must give a great compliment to the team, we were the better side. We gave a lot and had a body language of power. It was unfortunate that we conceded the goal, that was bad luck, the ball touched the hand a minute before half-time,” Loew was quoted as saying by goal.com after the loss.
“We had our chances, regretfully we didn’t score. We didn’t have the luck we needed but in 2012 (European Championship semi-final loss to Italy) or 2010 (World Cup semi-final loss to Spain) when we went out, the side that beat us were better than us. Today that wasn’t the case, we were better than the French.”
