Bournemouth manager Gary O’Neil insists his team were the better side in their 1-0 defeat to Everton at Goodison Park and hit out at the match officials.
The result ensured the Blues avoided a first relegation in 72 years but even though his own side had already secured their own safety several weeks back, their boss, who turned 40 earlier this month believed they put up a good show. He said: “It was enjoyable, I thought the lads handled it very well. They stood up to Everton’s direct play, showed real good control plus calmness and quality with the ball.
“It was what I expected it to be and I thought the lads coped with it very well.”
