In the 7th round of the Premier League, Sunderland lost to Manchester United 0-2 away. After the game, Sunderland coach Le Brees was interviewed by the media.
■About this game, Le Brees said: "We didn't start well, which is a bit disappointing because our goal in this game is very high. The performance in the first 30 minutes did not reach the level that the Premier League should have. Manchester United scored two goals, and the game became a completely different situation. We changed the formation and tried to play more one-on-one, which made the game a little messy, but at least we re-entered the game. However, today we were not strong enough to create enough opportunities, and only improved in the final stage."
■About the overturned penalty
Le Brees said: "I haven't looked back at that goal yet, so I don't think it will change my view of the whole game. This game doesn't define the start of our season. However, if we don't get to the level we should be, I don't think we can gain a foothold in this league."
■About the team
"We are still a young team, and we have to go through ups and downs. Of course, we don't want to be too negative when we lose, but this game is a strong reminder that the demands of this league are very high."
