MATCH REPORT: BRENTFORD 2-2 CITY
Savinho, who was a constant threat going forward, and was unlucky to not get his name on the scoresheet after crashing a shot against the post with the game still 0-0, was upset to let two points slip away, but is already looking to put it right in Sunday’s trip to Ipswich Town.
“I’m quite sad about this result and how the circumstances meant that we lost two points, and ended up drawing 2-2,” he said when speaking immediately after the game.
“But it’s all about the next game now. We have training tomorrow and focus is now on Ipswich.
“Of course it is a positive [creating chances]. Unfortunately we weren’t able to finish all our chances today and you have to give the goalkeeper some merit in that.
“We created a lot of chances and we didn’t score. Again, we have training tomorrow and we have to work on what we can improve, and that includes our finishing.”
