I’m of course absolutely devastated with the result last night and need some time now to process the massive disappointment we are all feeling. To get so close is heartbreaking, and I know all of us around the country are hurting. "However, the biggest emotion I am feeling is pride. I am so proud to be a part of this squad. The last five weeks I’ve had the best time of my entire life and the journey we have all been on together as players, management, staff, fans and as a nation has been special. "It’s been a true honour to represent our country at a major tournament and together we’ve all created memories that will last a lifetime. "We win together and lose together, and although it’s painful today this is just the start for this squad and we will be back better, stronger and ready to go again. "Thank you so much to everyone around the country for the incredible support for all of us during the whole tournament. Seeing everyone come together as we have over the last month has been amazing and I know there are great days ahead. "We are all hungry for success and the future is bright for this group!!! 🦁❤️🏴󠁧󠁢󠁥󠁮󠁧󠁿." Rice had an impressive game against Italy.
