Rating this game

"Tonight was difficult for us, of course, I was extremely disappointed with the result. In terms of the way we lost the ball, we actually performed well at the start of the game, but it was too easy. Facing a top team, we have to admit that it is impossible to win the game by conceding the ball in this way."

" As I said, goals will change the game, and the impact on the game is too great. Today we easily sent away the chance to score goals, and we must do better next. It is difficult to gain a foothold in the Premier League before you solve this problem. , especially the opponent is the top team, we must improve significantly. "

About offside goals being blew up

"When you concede the ball in this way, the game will become difficult, and the time point of the goal is also very unfavorable. To be honest, we were a little unlucky and were blown away an offside goal, which was a penalty between a millimeter. But no matter what, during the whole game, if you over-press and press too hard, you may be pierced by the opponent. But at the same time, at home, we must create pressure, strive to take the initiative, and force the opponent to make mistakes. So, it is indeed a difficult night."
