"WE ARE OBVIOUSLY DISAPPOINTED" POST-MATCH INTERVIEW Eveliina Summanen Chelsea Women 2-1 Spurs Women

0:00This podcast is proud to be part of the Talksport fan network. Talksport, powered by fans. I'm really tough on to take it this afternoon. After getting back to Wundle and seed late on, just give us your thoughts on the game. Yeah, obviously, disappointed. I think second half we did good things and we were really on top of the game and had a good momentum, but obviously Chelsea's a good team and they had couple good chances on the game and this had the win at the end of the day, but obviously, disappointed. When you can see so late on the first half, you don't know what to expect coming into the second half, but I guess you can take a lot of positives on how we reacted and then you'll wonder for goal to get us back level. Yeah, I mean, I think we came to the second half a lot way more confidence and on the first half, we were stuck quite a lot in our defensive block, which was okay still, and we're willing to do that. That's how we want to be and if we have to do that, then we do it, but yeah, second half,

1:01we forced Chelsea to play some longer balls and give us the possession, and then we got to enjoy the ball a little bit more. Then at the same time, we need to utilize a little bit more on those situations. And obviously, you don't like to score easy goals. Just talk us through that goal, is it? You just spotted goalkeeper off a line and thought you were just delivering a wicking ball? To be honest, it wasn't accident. The delivery didn't go where we wanted to go, where I wanted it to go, but actually it was better than expected of them. And obviously, it's been a really tough run of results in recent weeks. I know we didn't get the result here this afternoon, but was this sort of a change of momentum in terms of performance wise? Yeah, I mean, it's been tough. We've also played good teams and nothing away from the opponents that we've played, but obviously we have a high ambitious and we need to perform better as well if we want to reach the gap between us and the top teams. But I think you need to take every single game as a part of the journey,

2:02and I think we're still doing the right things. We're still playing the way like exciting football, and we want to improve all the time. Like today, we could have gone either way at the end of the day, and I think that's what's exciting for the future as well. No, see, now, into the international break, and then one final push into the season, what do you want to get out for the rest of the season? Yeah, obviously, we want to bounce back for these tough couple of last few weeks and just end the season on high, and obviously just give a little bit to our fans as well, because they've shown a great support for the past few weeks, and we obviously want to keep back a little bit as well.
