Meanwhile, Warriors coach Zdravko Logarusic has blamed fatigue for the 2-1 defeat to Senegal. In his post-match interview, the Croat said:
We started the game well but fatigue crept in and Senegal came back into the game and won it.
We played a number of matches in a short space of time and this was too much for the players, who have not played football in a long time.
