The selector Kiril Lazarov says that Denmark deservedly came to a convincing triumph despite the good start of its players.

- I just want to prepare for a match with big opponents. But, no matter how hard I tried, this was an impossible mission to give more resistance, despite the fact that in most of the match we resisted with unaffirmed players. These minutes we have given to these players may mean a lot to them. In the future we need to find 16 to 20 players who would serve Macedonia. It is different when you see a player in the Macedonian championship, and different is the same player here at the European Championship against Denmark. Here we need to have a clear picture of who to count on, to get to those 20 players. We have shown that we can be competitors against Denmark, which is a trampling machine. We had a new misfortune, Kuzmanovski was injured early. And some of their reserves were the best players and that says what kind of selection it is - says Lazarov who does not say that he has no objections to the handball players.

- I am partially satisfied, it is important to form a clear picture. This European Championship means a lot to us, you saw that Montenegro surprised Slovenia, however, we had two strong opponents, we thought that we would win with Montenegro. We will take this as a positive experience. I do not blame the players, we worked extra preparations. In those 24 days we trained hard. But sometimes you can not go against the problems. This should probably have happened, we accept it with a smile, with a sour smile.

Although he could not play in Debrecen due to a calf injury in one of the last training sessions before the first match of the European Championship with Slovenia, Lazarov announced that he will play in the barrage matches.

- If I am healthy in the playoffs, I will play. My presence means. I was preparing for this European Championship, but I'm sorry I did not perform. We fell apart like a tower of cards day by day. Suddenly everything started to fall apart, and some got a chance to play in a big competition. I need to analyze and select 20 players that I will count on in the playoffs - adds Lazarov.
