Fair play to Chile. They showed more hunger in the end.

I thought we did really well to contain their attack. If we had pushed in the second-half, we could have scored. Yet, we seemed too happy to let the game drag on, unnecessarily. 

This game showed that we need to renew our center-backs. There's no way that we can take 3 center-backs to Russia, next year, who are over 33. We'll be murdered by any decent side.

Our best player in this tournament has been Cédric. I hope he can leave Southampton this Summer and evolve in a bigger club. He's a class act.

André Gomes, on the other hand.....how the hell is this guy at Barcelona is beyond me. Slows down the midfield, can't shoot properly, can't dribble. He thinks he's Pirlo or Zidane. It's unbelievable. Even more that Fernando Santos insist in putting him in the starting XI. 

All in all, we could and should have done better in this game. Hopefully, we learned a lesson with this and Fernando will  make the due changes to bring our best squad, next Summer.
