Crystal Palace of England midfielder, Eberechi Eze has admitted that he was deeply disappointed with his side’s loss to Leicester City on Monday, as The Eagles scored first and looked to have a grip on the game early on, megasportsarena.com reports.
Although Palace played away from home, they looked bright and had the fist pound of flesh when Eze set up Wilfried Zaha for a 12th-minute opener but, while his side made The Foxes sweat before a second-half comeback, the night ended in a 2-1 defeat for the visitors.
It got more agonizing for Eze recalling how Jonny Evans’ last-ditch tackle stopped Christian Benteke restoring Palace’s lead, after Castagne’s leveler for Leicester, such that the Nigerian-born former Queens Park Rangers of England dazzler confessed that it was a game of agony and frustrations for him personally.
Eze told the London-based club’s official site: “It’s a difficult one. I think the boys worked hard. We put in a good performance but again, if you make mistakes and you let them get chances, they are eventually going to get chances because they’re a good side.
“We’ve been working hard in training and preparing for this game for a while after the Chelsea game, so we were in a good position beforehand, but we are disappointed.”
