"We played well, with a disciplined first half. In the second half we were better on the ball as well, and created chances. It's just a shame that they scored three times," he told VCF Media.

"We have to win the next game at all costs. There is no other option."

Asked about his fitness, having returned from a series of injury setbacks, Cillessen said that he believes he is ready for the final run-in.

"I feel good, physically. I'm looking forward to playing the final four games, then there's the 'dessert' (the European Championships)."
