No goals.
When you come to the top teams and you get your chances, you've got to take them.
We've had three big, big chances tonight.
Jay early on, I think it was about 18 minutes or something.
Then Solomon maybe should score and then Johnny Evans is header.
And that changed the impact of the game.
Just one of those might have just been enough to unnerve them.
In the end, obviously, they get confidence from the 2-0 lead and it makes it even more difficult.
I don't know about that.
I mean, it was a blow to lose Daniel on his first run into the corner.
So that, you know, sort of didn't give us the perfect start.
In many ways, we've done a decent job tonight.
But the scoreline kind of reflects, as you say, the season for us.
We just...
Games we've had great control over, didn't have great control over this game, but other games we have, we just can't seem to get the goals to get us the win.
And they need to come, and they need to come quickly.
So Daniel's injury will be important now, getting back.
Yeah, a little bit.
But it's hard for the players because as a defender, if you get a goal, suddenly you get a lift as well.
The whole team gets a lift.
