Furious with the refereeing that the women’s national team had in the minor final against Spain, Alexia Kammenou appeared in her statements. The blue and white bent in the final conceding a goal in exhalation, which angered everyone in our representative group.
“We came down to make a shot at the end of time, teams come down with an advantage, with a numerical advantage and so we did. Now, what can I say… Those who know polo saw, what can I say… He whistled something that is never whistled in the annals. Even if it’s (ie offensive foul) you don’t whistle it because it hasn’t even been played.
We put those aside for now. How can I not be happy with my team? We deserved the final. We saw the video of the semi-final, we saw it again and we will be haunted by this match and today’s but only for a while because the team will manage to bring distinctions. The team has evolved, within a month and a half they did incredible things. Such situations make us stronger, we move forward“, he told ERT and added:
“Obviously we deserved something else. Competitively we did not give up, this was very evident, everyone saw it even the most simple fan saw what happened in the last two games.
To become a great team you have to be respected by everyone and to be respected you have to compete for years. I believe next time they will respect us more.
The mental toll is huge, thinking about what’s going on here. The team, the way they played, deserved a medal here. He deserved the final first. It’s okay, God gives justice. Injustice needs patience, we have it».
