Michael O'Neill insists there was no time for any lengthy post-mortem or VAR trial following Friday's Danish dejection.
Callum Marshall's disallowed goal in injury time at the Parken Stadium was a cruel denouement that denied Northern Ireland a spirited, and unlikely, point in Euro qualifying Group H.
Captain Jonny Evans did admit the players chatted about the injury time drama, 'like any fan would' in the immediate aftermath of the game.

But for O'Neill, the focus quickly shifted to Monday night's home clash with Kazakhstan, and another chance to kick-start their Euro campaign.
Three games down and Northern Ireland have just one win to their name, that coming against minnows San Marino in the opening game in Group H.
O'Neill is determined to head into the summer break buoyed by the feel-good factor of a second victory, and six points on the board.
He said: "You speak to the players after Friday's game. They understand that there are plenty of positives to take from it.
"But you try to draw a line under it quickly, and move onto the next game. It is probably more difficult for the players to do that because they put so much into the game.
"But the staff have to change our focus, and on the plane back we analyse Kazakhstan, and also look at areas we can improve on. There is no point looking at the goal over and over again, hoping that it will change the outcome, because it won't happen.
"You have to deal with that, and we moved on quite quickly."
O'Neill was missing 10 regulars against Denmark on Friday night, with six Under 21 players featuring in a 1-0 defeat in Copenhagen.
It called for a workmanlike approach at Parken Stadium, a philosophy O'Neill won't abandon against Kazakhstan despite having home advantage.
"When we were successful as a team, the backbone was always how we were without the ball. I don't think that is going to change," he said.
"What I do feel is we have a lot of good, young technical players in our squad. They have to recognise the importance of the team without the ball.
"Once they do that then the technical side of their game will take over, because that's the natural part for them. Isaac (Price) and Shea (Charles) are very good examples of that.
"They are all very good technically, and athletically. And the others who made cameos from the bench proved it as well.
"They are all very comfortable on the ball. That's all we can ask.
"At home you always have to try and force the game a bit more. But we have to realise our success is built on we have really good centre-backs.
"We have the makings of a really good midfield as well. And that will be the making of this team.
"Somewhere along the line hopefully someone will pop up and become a regular goalscorer again."
