David Moyes: Feelings After Everton Draw with Man United
David Moyes, manager of the "Toffees" Everton, expressed satisfaction with the result after his team came from behind to draw 2-2 at home against Manchester United in a thrilling English Premier League match last night. He considered the draw better than a defeat.
In the match, Manchester United took the lead 2-1 in the 88th minute with a header by Benjamin Sesko, but Everton's Anselm Maitland-Niles scored a stunning long-range goal to equalize 2-2 in the 90+6 minute stoppage time in an incredible finish.
Moyes said, “Actually, I don't think we deserved to be behind on both occasions. It's hard to say we didn't do well enough to get something from this game.”
“We conceded the first goal right at the start of the second half, which was very bad. We couldn't keep possession or control the game after equalizing, and then they went ahead again.”
“Was the 2-2 equalizer a crucial moment? It was a key moment in terms of timing for the fans, but honestly, I want to win, and I believe we have the ability to win. I want us to be a team that can challenge all the top teams.”
“I think we played much better in many aspects. I believe our football has improved a lot, but above all, I want us to win.”
“I really wanted to win this game, I wanted it badly. But in the end, I am satisfied with the draw because it seemed like we could have gotten nothing.”
