Austria lost 1-2 to Turkey in the just-concluded Euro 1/8 finals and failed to advance to the quarter-finals. After the game, Austrian player Baumgartner said in an interview that this was the saddest day of his life, and that he felt like he had nothing left. 
Baumgartner said in a post-match interview: “To be honest, this is the saddest day of my life, it’s really hard to find the right words to describe this feeling. We wanted to win this game, everyone gave their all, but ultimately it wasn’t enough. This ending shouldn’t have happened, it’s truly a sad day for the whole team.”
“Our defense wasn’t very good, the team conceded again from a set piece, which is really unlucky. We fought back afterwards, that’s our character, Austria never gives up. In the end we had some great chances, the team was hopeful of equalizing, but maybe not today.”
“This feeling is hard to describe, I don’t have anything on my mind right now, I feel like I have nothing left. At times, we felt like we were doing well at the Euros. I need some time to get over this.”
