A bit fortunate in some ways, as Livermore should've gone for the handball.
That said, we were the much better side for most of the game and created lots of chances. If we were more clinical, would've been more goals up. Overplay from our defence seemed like Stoke's best hope of creating something.
I've been critical of Hegazi, but he was excellent today. Defended like a wounded animal. Certain MOTM performance if it wasn't for Gayle's 2 goals. Livermore was also very good prior to the rush of blood for the handball.
