Super Eagles midfielder, Alex Iwobi, has expressed deep frustration after Fulham’s dramatic 5-4 loss to Manchester City.
Despite trailing 5-1 earlier in the encounter, the Cottagers mounted a spirited comeback with three late goals to narrow the deficit.
Iwobi found the back of the net, while fellow Nigerian teammate, Samuel Chukwueze struck twice to boost Fulham’s hopes.
Still, the result left Iwobi far from satisfied.
The 29-year-old insisted that Fulham’s fight deserved a better outcome.
“I feel disappointed because we didn’t get anything out of the fighting spirit that we showed, but I think we have to take the positivity from the game,” Iwobi told the club’s official website.
“We showed that fighting spirit in the second half, but unfortunately, there’s nothing to show for it.
“The manager spoke to us at halftime, saying one thing that we can’t let our heads drop, no matter what happened and also do it for the fans.
“And to be fair, they were with us till the last minute of the game, so we put on a show for the people watching, but it wasn’t the result we wanted.”
