"Each goal is very important to me, but I regret that my goal against the Russians didn’t mean much for the national team. Nonetheless, I think we can build on our game against the Turks and the Russians. We were dull in the first half, the Russians attacked us very well, played football aggressively, took advantage of their situations. In the second half we managed to control the match and what is very important, we didn't collapse after 0-3. I  believed that we would be able to get the equalizing goal as well, which in the end unfortunately we did not manage. Despite today's defeat, I boldly say that we are ready for the European Championship qualifier against Bulgaria" - commented Nemanja Nikolic.
