“We knew we couldn’t compete with the intensity. We talked about it. It was a wide open game. We had chances at the end, but congratulations to Bournemouth for the win.”

“50-50 in midfield, duels, they play like this, they are very aggressive, they had six or seven days to prepare, they have the power and the pace but you have to win in these situations and they had chances. Ederson made a good save. We had a really good moment at the start of the second half and then it was difficult to take it because we did well. After we scored we had momentum and chances but didn’t score.

“It’s like that. We have a few players https://ufabet999.app Who have play a lot and a lot of players who haven’t played are not very good. We played well against Spurs but today we couldn’t handle the intensity and that’s why we lost the game,” Pep said.
