“I’m disappointed for what I’ve done for the team. It’s tough.”

Dodds added: “I felt it was the best game we played all week, so that made it even harder to take. We gave ourselves a chance at the end and that’s all we could ask for. We win as a team and lose as a team.

“We have to regroup for tomorrow. There’s still a medal to be won out there.”
