"I really blame myself", Bednarek, who stood in for injured Robbin Ruiter, said to broadcaster NOS after the match. "I wanted to be important for the team and that did not succeed. It should have been a crucial moment to pull the team through." He will remember this moment for some time. "We were so close, but so far away. This is a bitter pill for me to swallow."
