Martinez Quarta took to social media to express his thoughts on the defeat, stating, “Now that 3 days have passed, it still hurts so much and what I say here will make no difference. But it is the moment to show my face, take our share of the responsibility, get back on our feet and finish the season tomorrow in the best possible way.”
