The players started their debut performance at Euro 3 with a 1: 2020 defeat by Austria, and according to Elif Elmas, the experience from this match is welcome for the rest of the European Championship.. "Diamond" Elmas also believes that nothing is lost and that they are looking forward to the matches against Ukraine on June 17 and against the Netherlands on June 21.

- I honestly think we played well, but at the same time we felt what it means to play and how big and strong the European Championship is. This is a great lesson for us, but nothing is lost. With good results in the next two matches, I think we can provide that desired second phase. Austria played fast and was slightly better than us, but we need to leave the defeat behind us as soon as possible and analyze the next opponent with cold heads - says Elmas.
