Speaking after the match,a devastated Degenek admitted he cost his team and his country dearly.
"[It's] pretty shit,to be in this situation,"he told reporters."Shit to be in my shoes and my skin. But that's football,that's how the situation unfolded.
"I don't feel sorry so much for myself as I do for my country and my teammates,because obviously we ended a tournament because of my mistake. But that's life. I've got to deal with it."
