A draw when playing away is usually considered a good result. Still, I think that the way the game against Middlesboro turned out made everyone very disappointed. How can we not be disappointed when we scored three times away and did not manage to win the game?
Although we were not particularly good during the first half, we improved significantly in the second one. Unfortunately in the last few minutes Middlesboro managed to come back and equalise. Actually this is the third game in a row, after the games against Chelsea and Manchester City, that we conceive two goals in the last minutes. Own goals or goals that came from deflections are not uncommon in the game, but I think we are as unlucky as we can possibly be at the moment!
I am confident that with a bit more luck and concentration we can achieve much more than what we’ve managed in the last three games. By the way, I never brought down Job, who slipped and felt in the area. At least they did not score from the spot!
