Match report

10 Nov 2017

Stuart Baxter: "It's difficult for the whole squad and probably the whole country as well. We dragged ourselves back after two poor performances against Cape Verde."

"I thought the performance in the first half was amazing because I thought we were better than them but we went in 2-0 down. We had to work for everything and missed our chances."

"All that talk though means nothing because they beat us 2-0 and they go to Russia. The fact that we had more possession doesn't impress me at all, it's about scoring goals."

"I thought the performance in the first half was amazing because I thought we were better than them but we went in 2-0 down. We had to work for everything and missed our chances."

"My mandate was never about making it to the World Cup it was about progress and in this short time we've made progress. I don't think that Senegal or Nigeria are much better than us. With the backing of everyone we can move our football forward."

Sadio Mane: "It wasn't an easy game for us but we kept pushing, kept believing. After going two goals up the coach urged us to keep pushing because a World Cup is a dream for any player."
