"The players gave their all. We had two players on the pitch who were not 100 per cent ready - Jonny Evans and Marcus Rashford. Of course, we are disappointed with the score. On another day, we could have won this game.

We had one bad performance and that was last week. There are many games to play and anyone can beat anyone. Fifth place can also get you a ticket to the Champions League, so as I said, we have to fight for it," ten Heg told Sky Sports.
