Everton play poorly, Southampton deserve to win

Southampton

Manager Everton, Carlo Ancelotti, did not want to make many excuses about his team’s defeat to Southampton. The Saints deserved to win for playing better.

Everton are trying to maintain their unbeaten record this season when they visit St Mary’s, Sunday (25/10/2020) evening WIB. Lowering almost all of their best players, The Toffees played attacking from the early minutes.

However, Southampton was actually able to handle Everton’s resistance and was able to troubleshoot several times through fast attacks. Everton did not even move because it was difficult to create dangerous opportunities.

Southampton then took the lead in the 25th minute through James Ward-Prowse’s goal to continue Danny Ings’ bait through a kick in the penalty box. Southampton’s second goal was born in the 36th minute through Che Adams who fired a cross.

Everton tried to catch up in the second half, but their efforts were in vain. In that case, Everton even lost Lucas Digne who was red-carded after violating Kyle Walker-Peters.

The 2-0 score for Southampton’s victory lasted until the end, ending Everton’s neat start. The victory that Southampton deserved according to Ancelotti.

Because according to Opta’s statistics, Southampton made 54 percent ball possession, then made 12 attempts with six on goal. Everton only made two attempts on target out of a total of six.

“We didn’t play well, Southampton were much better than us and they deserved to win. Sometimes you don’t perform at your best, and that comes after we have had a good run. Now we have to keep looking forward with the same passion and belief.” Ancelotti was quoted as saying BBC Sports.

“We tried to get up in this match, we controlled the match well after the first half. I told the players, winter is coming soon and we have to react well,” he continued.
