00:00Can you accept this apology after this, from your point of view, big wrong decision?

00:05Very difficult, of course we accept it, but you know, it's semi-final, it's not the moment for apologies, honestly.

00:13It's really not the moment for two such blatant violations of the rules and then apologies.

00:20It's just not the moment.

00:22Everyone has to go to the limit, everyone has to suffer, everyone has to play without mistakes.

00:39And if you can't deliver that, then an apology doesn't help at the moment.

00:43Even if we accept them as sportsmen, of course.
