Now PEC Zwolle midfielder Reijnders has opened up about the situation inside the dressing room after the demoralising defeat. The 25-year-old claimed that the players and coaching staff analysed the defeat and held lengthy talks among themselves to clear the air in the dressing room.
WHAT TIJJANI REIJNDERS SAID
During a conversation with reporters, the player said, "We've had some tough conversations but we're on the right track and everyone is on the same page. It is clear from now on that winning means we go through, losing is going home.
"I've watched the match again and saw what could be improved. We have to make sure it doesn't happen again. Romania is the ideal opponent to show how things should be done. They also play with a lot of intensity. We have to be much more careful with the ball and didn't have that at all against Austria."
