“We conceded a goal on their first chance. then conceded another goal We had a chance to shoot the night, reducing the gap on the goal. But it can’t be done.
“That’s not what describes a broken state of mind. Now all we can do is stay silent and accept defeat. Before this game we had 69 points and were second in the table. That’s clear.”
