00:00Sunderland came away with a 1-1 draw against Everton in the Premier League, with Regis

00:05Libris praising his side's composure.

00:08Yes, we didn't start well or the opponents started really well and they were better than

00:14us. They were dominant. We were not composed on the ball and we turned the ball over many

00:24times. So it was like, with this situation, their dynamic was fed. Do we say this? We

00:42feed their dynamic. Because they like spaces, they like counterattacks, they like 1v1s,

00:51Grealish, NDI, Barry, they are really good when they have space to exploit and because

00:58of our turnovers, it was possible to do that. Later in the game, I think we were more composed

01:04and we dominated the game, but these first 30 minutes were not at the level of the Premier

01:13League.

01:14And Middlesbrough head coach Rob Edwards has reflected on what he described as a strange

01:18game as Borough lost 3-0 away at Watford ahead of their next fixture against Leicester City.

01:25A bit like what I said after, it felt like a strange game. And we did. When I look at

01:30it back, we got into a lot of good areas and didn't make the most of it. And the goals were

01:36really, really disappointing. I know they're big moments because that's what you win and

01:40lose a game with the goals. But it was the sort of manner of it. We're in a brilliant position

01:46for the first goal, to maybe go one-up ourselves. But some of our positioning wasn't quite right

01:52in other areas. And then on that transition, as soon as we lose it, which is a big, big

01:58strength, we don't quite deal with it. So the first goal was important. Those moments

02:04were really frustrating. And like I said, we got into good areas and didn't make the most

02:09right. And even right towards the end, there's some quite big chances. Sanjay had one, David

02:16had a couple.
