Finland
VM kval. UEFA
Fredag aften var en kedelig en af slagsen for Jacob Friis.
Friis' finske tropper havde behov for en sejr for at holde en meget teoretisk VM-drøm i live, men her kom Malta i vejen.
Miniputnationen vandt sensationelt med 1-0, men det til trods var Jacob Friis tilfreds med sit mandskabs indsats.
- Det er frustrerende. Desværre var kampens bedste spiller modstanderens målmand. Sådan er fodbold.
- Jeg er meget tilfreds med spillernes indstilling, den måde de spillede på og forsvaret. Ni ud af ti gange vinder vi en kamp som denne.

- Vores præstation var rigtig god. Jeg kan ikke bede om mere fra spillerne. Jeg behøver næppe at give min mening om resultatet til kende, sagde Friis ifølge Iltalehti efter kampen.
Maltas sejr var deres første udebanesejr i VM-kvalifikationen siden 2013 i Armenien.
Jacob Friis har stået i spidsen for Finland siden starten af året.
