Manchester United veteran and Great Britain representative, http://www.senore.com/Football-soccer/Ryan-Giggs-c31985 has gone on to hail the youngsters in the GB team, following the squad crashing out of the Olympics at the hands of South Korea.
The team looked to be rather promising early on in the completion, but in the game against South Korea, things seemed to fall apart.
GB took the game all the way to the penalty shootout, but following a miss from http://www.senore.com/Football-soccer/Daniel-Sturridge-c10076 and with none of the South Korean players missing with their efforts, GB were sent crashing out of the contest.
Despite the team losing out in such a disheartening manner, Giggs feels that every team member has grown a lot via his participation with the team and hopes for everyone to carry on and achieve the very best from here on.
"Of course, it's disappointing," he told reporters. "Ultimately we just weren't quite good enough.”
"They were well-organised, and made it hard for us to play our football. Overall though, it's been a fantastic experience, one the players and the staff have enjoyed.”
"It was a pleasure to play with so many talented young players. Some I knew, some I didn't, but there's a lot of talent in that dressing room.”
"Hopefully they can take it back to their clubs now and have good seasons. They deserve it, because their attitudes have been brilliant.”
"It's been a pleasure to play with them, to be around them, and to train with them."
With the completion now over for the GB squad members, all of them will be heading back to their teams, where they will look to compensate for the disappointing Olympic run in.
Giggs will now link up with the Manchester United team, as he looks to help the team improve on last season’s form.
Last season, United failed to win any trophies and that is rather unacceptable for Giggs and the rest of the team.
Nonetheless, with the veteran now having more experience in working with younger players, he is bound to be a better role model to the young players at Old Trafford, all of whom can thrive under his mentorship.
