SHAKHTAR DONETSK 1-3 Valencia

I thought Valencia would start as they did and felt if we went for the tactical advantage we had a chance but that got scuppered quite early with Valencia scoring in the first 4 minutes. OK, we thought again, we have a chance with their main goalkeeper going off injured, no that didn't help either as they then went 2 up. We brought it back to 2-1 before half time and despite our best efforts, throwing everything at the game as minutes went on, we couldn't get a leveller and to rub salt in the wound a late Valencia 3rd got added.

I think we can be happy with the fight, we know Valencia have that little bit more in some key areas and I think that was the difference over 90 minutes. But for us not to bag more goals from the chances we had against a back-up goalkeeper is very infuriating. We maybe didn't deserve a win, just out of touch to bemoan a draw, but it's evident the level of squad we currently have will mean this is going to be a long old season. But we'll keep plugging away and enjoy the ride.
