‘Brighton didn’t steal anything’ – Gennaro Gattuso says Seagulls deserve win against Marseille
Speaking in his post match press conference following Marseille’s defeat to Brighton at the American Express Stadium, Gennaro Gattuso says Brighton deserved their late winner through Joao Pedro, but that his side should have been better in some key areas. The following was transcribed by Get French Football News editor George Boxall, present at the Amex yesterday evening.
“We knew what kind of match we were going to face. Let me add Brighton didn’t steal anything, we knew their strengths. I think we could have done better in terms of quality and accuracy. We focussed too much on getting our keeper to play longer and free ourselves from their pressure. We could have got the ball out better. It’s hard to lose in the last minute, but Brighton deserved it.”
Gennaro Gattuso on Marseille’s defeat to Brighton:
“We weren’t good enough in our pressing, courage, and quality – all the things you need to win.”
