”I’m happy with the penalty saved, but not with the match, which we started well anyway. That’s football: I saved a penalty but then I made a mistake on the second goal. We need to move forward and analyze the good and bad things we did today,” Okoye told the club’s official website.

“Are we the worst defense? We often take risks; that’s our football. We win, but we also lose like that. We need to improve defensively, myself first.”

Learning From Mistake

Okoye, who was at fault for Bologna’s second goal stated that the players will learn from their mistakes.

“Mistakes are part of the game, but we need to reduce them. It’s important to learn from these mistakes,” added the Nigeria international.

“In football, the most important thing is the result, but we also want to play well. We need to stay united and focus on the next match.”
