Bosnia and Herzegovina and England's U-21 national football teams played a draw today (0-0) in Sarajevo in a fourth qualifying match for the European Championship.
BIH coach Darko Nestorovic: "I've said before, if we repeat the performance from the match with Switzerland, we can expect a favorable result, and that's what happened today. Boys gave their best, and adhered to the tactics we agreed upon. We stopped the English and went for quick counter-attacks. We didn't manage to score a goal, but I think this really boosted our confidence because we showed we can play against the strongest teams out there."
England coach Gareth Southgate: "It was a tough match with lots of fouls. Perhaps we could have won, but 0-0 is a fair result. We turn to the other games now, there are still plenty of challenges in the remainder of qualifications."
The next qualifying match is scheduled for March 25th 2016, when our team will play against Kazakhstan.
