United ended up taking the lead in west London, when Jadon Sancho capitalised on a Jorginho mistake in the middle of the pitch, before slotting the ball into the bottom right-hand corner. Jorginho made up for his error, when the Italy midfielder scored from the penalty spot in, with a typically calm pass into the back of the net. After the game, Thomas Tuchel admitted that it feels like two points dropped rather than one gained.
Thomas Tuchel said: “Yes, for sure (two points dropped). It is hard to imagine we could lose this – or drop points – because we were the better team, the team that set the rhythm, the intensity, and had high ball wins. We are disappointed but we have no regrets. This can happen in football, we know it. It does not feel good when it happens but it is like this. I have told the team I am happy with the performance and the way we played.”
