MOYES: It was a bit disappointing that we only got 1 point, zuma didn't play because of stomach upset

Live bar February 14 News In a previous Premier League match, West Ham United drew 2-2 with Leicester City. In an interview with Sky Sports and the BBC after the game, West Ham United manager Moyes said the team was a bit disappointed that the team only scored 1 point in the game.

Moyes said: "We started the game very well, we controlled the game, but we didn't do it until half-time. We gave the opponent a penalty and they scored from it, we didn't play well in the second half but showed resilience and we got a point. We didn't really give our opponents a lot of chances, we created opportunities but didn't take them and we were punished for it. ”

'You need to keep that in mind, this Leicester City won the FA Cup not too long ago, and the Premier League title, they have some really good players, we tried to persevere in the game and despite some difficulties, we still got a result.

"It annoyed me that we let the opponent get a penalty in the lead in the first half. But the performance of the players says a lot, we have grown very fast, we have made great progress in the last few years and I will do my best to play all the capabilities of this team and I hope we can challenge the top teams. ”

Commenting on The situation in Zuma, Moyes said: "He was sick before the game and he wanted to play and we also wanted him to play, but he got sick at night. He wasn't with the team and didn't eat much, and in a situation like that he thought it was unlikely that he wanted to play, so we told Diop to be prepared and Zuma had a stomach problem, which could have been caused by something he ate. ”

"I hope we can change some of the perceptions of West Ham United, but we will do it more on the pitch. We have a fantastic squad, they're young and exciting and we're trying to make progress. West Ham United have done a great job in East London, with young fans coming to our aid and we have had good results. We shouldn't let anything else spoil the atmosphere, Zuma did make mistakes, both the manager and the players could make mistakes, in which case you would want to be forgiven and he has apologized. ”

Returning to the game, Moyes said: "We started off very well and we should have scored the second goal with a 1-0 lead. But we got Leicester a penalty and they got back into the game and that goal before half-time was decisive. ”

"In the first 20 to 30 minutes of the game, we were in the lead and it annoyed me that we didn't create more chances in that situation. Leicester City then came up with a better performance, but we also showed great resilience and only got 1 point to make us feel a bit disappointed. When you're not doing well, that's all you can do, shrink your defense, and keep getting points. ”
