00:00Leeds United's Brendan Aronson reflected on what he described as a tough afternoon away at Brighton and Hove Albion in the Premier League,
00:08as Leeds United lost by three goals to nil.
00:11Aronson made clear that it was tough for his side to create chances against a good Brighton side.
00:20Yeah, I mean, of course, it's a tough result.
00:22We always knew it was going to be tough coming here to try to get a result and a point.
00:24But, I mean, it didn't help that we conceded such an early goal,
00:28because then you're kind of chasing the game for the whole time, and that's what they want.
00:31You know, they're looking for an open game, and we had to open up and try to play forward more.
00:35They were kind of comfortable when they could sit back a little bit, too.
00:38It was tough to get chances against them.
00:40And, yeah, I think the biggest takeaway is, you know, converting our chances that we had today
00:44and then also not conceding that first goal.
00:47And up to an hour, Mark, there was a contest, wasn't it?
00:49There was only one goal in it, and there were moments in that hour when it looked like you might get back into it.
00:55Yeah, we definitely had chances.
00:56At the end of the first half, we had the chance with Sean.
00:59We had a few other good chances where we could have made more out of it, I think.
01:03And, yeah, it's difficult because, you know, there's little things always in the Premier League.
01:07But, yeah, I mean, it's a tough game to come here and get points,
01:11so we've just got to keep our heads up and just go on to the next one.
01:14And Bradford City's Max Power was left disappointed
01:17following the Bantams' FA Cup exit at the hands of Cheltenham Town.
01:21Power made clear just how much he admires the competition.
01:26It was a huge disappointment. I love the FA Cup.
01:32I think anyone watching the performance there, anyone who was here could see that.
01:35We certainly tried to win the game.
01:38Another day, maybe could have scored three, four, five goals.
01:42It was a bizarre start to the game.
01:46I never liked blaming official decisions.
01:49They've got a tough job, but it was a clear error.
01:53The ball's in the air and there's been a whistle mid-flight of the ball.
01:57So, naturally, a lot of our boys have stopped, thinking it was either a retake or a free kick to us.
02:03Yeah, and obviously, you find yourself 1-0 down in strange circumstances,
02:10something I've not seen before.
02:12I thought we responded really well.
