Barney Ronay’s match report has landed, I shall leave with you that. Ta-ra.

Orient manager Richie Wellens speaks to the BBC

I’m proud because we created chances and at times we caused them problems. The atmosphere was great, it was a brilliant cup tie. But then you realise… the goals are so obvious for us; the runs and the rotations that they make.

We started the game well and our wingers caused them problems, staying high one v one. But I’m disappointed with the winning goal [from Kevin De Bruyne] because it’s one we highlighted all week. At least it took the big boy to come on to beat us!

Charlie Kelman today: wow. Wow! Jamie Donley, we know what a talent he is. All these lads are 21/22 and just at the start of their careers. I’m pleased at their development – not the technical aspect but the game management, what you need to be a proper player.

In terms of the whole day it was a brilliant atmosphere and it’s been brilliant for our supporters. Our chairman’s buzzing because he got to meet Pep before the game! They’re just an unbelievable outfit aren’t they? I wish them well against Madrid, and we just carry on.
