That was the honest verdict from goalkeeper Asmir Begović, who didn’t shy away from the pain of watching a dominant first-half performance unravel.
“It’s a feeling of huge disappointment,” Begović admitted. “The game was very much two halves — first half for us, second half for them.”
Leicester had been in complete control. Clinical. Confident. Relentless. At 3-0, the Foxes looked comfortable.
“We took our chances. We put them under pressure. You would have taken that all day long.”
But one goal shifted everything.
“You concede one and they build momentum, build belief. You naturally go a bit deeper and it becomes difficult to take the game to them.”
From there, the momentum swung — and Leicester couldn’t wrestle it back.
“We just couldn’t see it out.”
There were no excuses from the experienced goalkeeper. Only accountability.
“We have to take it on the chin. We’ve got to learn fast and improve very, very quickly.”
With a young squad navigating difficult moments, Begović made it clear that leadership now matters more than ever.
“We have to continue to work, stay together and believe. There’s only one way out of it.”
The message is simple. Painful — but simple.
Respond. Improve. Stick together.
Now, Leicester must prove it on the pitch.
