I think it wasn't our best game, but we didn't deserve to leave here with zero points. In the first half we struggled a bit more, they dominated us and then we improved, but it wasn't enough.

It's a shame about the result. It wasn't our best game, but I also don't think we deserved to go away from here with zero points. It's true that in the first half we found it a lot more difficult. They dominated us for practically the entire time. In the second half we switched a couple of things up and improved, but it wasn't enough. When the team were playing at our best, pushing hard, and had done the most difficult thing: Avoiding it becoming 0-2 and drawing level to get the fans behind us and give us energy. We'd done that, we were pushing, and then from an isolated move they scored their second and we had to start over. It was an uphill struggle, and a team like Betis have great players, so it was difficult. The aim, in the end, is to compete every weekend and be at our best. That's what we've been doing all season: Competing against any side, at any ground. Today was a nice day, because of all the fans who had come along to support us after a few weeks without playing at home.

We wanted to make them happy with a win. It wasn't to be, but there are still games remaining and we have to be ready to fight in the next one.
