Managers Reaction
Brendan Rodgers said: “It was 93 minutes of really good work. We showed good resilience in our defending and the goals we scored were terrific. The second goal was a wonderful goal and we’re in a really good position but to concede the equalizer was disappointing so late but then to concede the late winner is a very, very, very poor goal to concede. It’s really hard to accept not to have taken anything from the game. It was really naive.”
Antonio Conte said: “A great win. We didn’t deserve to lose. The draw would have been unfair. We created many chances and were unlucky in many circumstances. My team showed we don’t want to give up and fight until the end. They have shown me the great will and desire not to lose this game. The compliment is for my players, not for me.”
