In the second round of the group stage of the UEFA Europa League on June 20, Scotland and Switzerland shook hands with a 1-1 draw. After the match, Scotland's player Gunn was interviewed by the media and he spoke highly of his team's performance in this match and compared it with the previous match.
Gunn began by mentioning that the team's performance today was significantly better in every aspect of the game compared to Friday night's game. He said, "From the beginning, everything about this game was ten times better than Friday night's game. We did a much better job with our intensity, pressure on the opponent, aggression and high steals. That set the tone for us at the beginning of the game."
He further noted that the team maintained a high level of performance throughout the 90 minutes of the game. Gunn said, "The team managed to hold on for the entire game. It was great to score in the first half, while the second half was relatively even and the game could have gone either way at any time."
Regarding the group stage situation, Gunn believes that the draw has left the suspense until the last match. He mentioned, "Now, we will take the suspense to the last game, which will be decisive."
In addition, Gunn shared how he and his teammates felt after Friday night's game. He said, "I personally felt a lot of pain after Friday's game because I felt like I didn't play as well as I should have. Many of my teammates in the locker room felt the same way. That became our motivation for today's game and we wanted to come out and show what we were really made of. I think everyone did that today."
