MONTERREY, Mexico June 20 : Tunisia coach Herve Renard said his team’s 4-0 defeat by Japan at the World Cup in Monterrey on Saturday was painful, but reflected the dominance of the Asian side. Tunisia’s second straight loss in Group F eliminated them from the tournament.
• “It is not the performance we were hoping for … The score of this second match is heavy, but it reflects the difference between the two teams tonight,” said Renard.
• “Even if we are eliminated we still have a third game to play. We are in a World Cup, and we must remain focused. It is important to get ready to fight for this third game against the Netherlands.”
• “It’s never easy after two losses in two games but we must take our responsibilities to be professionals to the very end.”
