Maresca, speaking to Sky Sports, said: “I think we competed very well for much of the game. We were similar, if not better.

 

“The performance was there but we didn’t take the chances. Probably the big difference was inside the box. I’m quite happy in terms of performance.

 

“For me, the important thing is to create chances. We didn’t score but we created chances. The first goal for them was almost offside; we almost scored. These things change results but the performance was good overall.”
