Post-Match Press Conference
Jake sat at the table, the glare of the cameras bright, the murmuring of journalists settling as the press officer nodded for the questions to begin.
The first reporter leaned forward, recorder in hand.
Reporter:"Jake, your thoughts on the defeat tonight?"
Jake exhaled, composed.
Jake: "It's a tough one because we had the chances to get something from this game. We created openings, we played our football, but at this level, you have to be ruthless. We weren't, and they punished us. But we're not out. We regroup, we go again."
A second journalist followed up.
Reporter:"You dominated spells of the match. Do you think the result was fair?"
Jake let the question hang for a moment, choosing his words.
