Fabian Hurzeller hailed his side’s character and spirit as they returned to form after beating Chelsea 2-1 in the FA Cup fourth round on Wednesday. An
own goal from Bart Verbruggen put Chelsea ahead early on but Brighton fought back with two goals through Giorgino Rutter and Kaoru Mitoma to seal the win. Brighton
returned to winning ways and responded well to their humiliating 7-0 defeat at Nottingham Forest last time out.
“It was a great response. We showed character after a bad start. I am proud of the way they came back. It was not easy and that’s why we deserved this win,” Hurzeller told the สมัครสมาชิก UFABET วันนี้ รับเครดิตฟรีทุกวัน.
“Mistakes can happen, especially with goalkeepers. One mistake can often lead to a goal. We tried to support him because he is an excellent goalkeeper. “
Giorgino Rutter did very well. He adapted very quickly to the intensity of the Premier League. He has great skills. And today it showed.
“The important thing is the unity on the pitch, the work of the whole team, everyone helped to save the situation, there was no blaming each other, they took responsibility together.”
Hurzeler also spoke about VAR. “But that’s football, without VAR the game is more emotional than it was today. Everyone agreed that today the atmosphere was great because they could celebrate the goal without wondering if it would be disallowed. I’m happy that it was like that. “
We tried to stay calm and continue working hard, not to get too excited after winning and not to panic after losing. “
That’s the charm of football, because you can always come back. It’s not always good times, it’s the same in life. Success is not always an easy path.”
