“When I starting play, I very disappointing and very sad after my lose. If you want to make one goal to win, you must lose. You can’t win all games. We are people, you make mistake. We are not computer. And if you understand your mistake, when you lose you can just make analysis game and continue to play and try and fix it and it’s no problem. More GG, more skill.”
