“Sincerely, I can’t answer you yet because I haven’t been able to hear the report yet.”
Marcelo Bielsa reaction - via BBC Sport
“It was a fair result. They established differences that justified their goals.
“They are different games and in the one today it was very difficult for us to defend. If you watch the game you will see it was difficult for us to anticipate their forwards.
“They attacked better than us. In the second half we defended a little bit better but we couldn’t manage to attack.”
On Raphinha’s substitution: “I decided that Daniel James should take over his role on the right and Tyler Roberts take over in the centre. He is not injured.”
Hjelde is up - and that’s full time soon after
