Eddie Howe reaction 👇

“It’s been a really tough run of fixtures. I can’t ask any more physically from them.

“We played with a good style and executed well bar the couple of goals that we didn’t defend well enough. That’s a tough thing to do here against this team.

“In the previous games, we’ve had more chances to score but there was a different feeling.

“City were all out today and we were and I thought it was a really good game in that both teams gave everything.”
