Lost to Crystal Palace in stoppage time! Bournemouth coach: I can’t accept a penalty kick in stoppage time

October 19th: After Bournemouth’s 3-3 draw with Crystal Palace in an away game, Bournemouth head coach Elora accepted an interview with the media. He was "angry" that the team lost victory due to a controversial penalty kick at the last moment, and believed that VAR's intervention was affected by the previous penalty.

How do you evaluate this game?

I think this is a very entertaining game. If we just talk about football, we played better in the first half and they played better in the second half. They punished us physically.

You were very angry about the late equalizer, especially the penalty call.

I can't be happy, I'm not satisfied, I'm frustrated and angry because I couldn't accept their goal in the 96th minute. Not because they didn't win, but because someone gave a penalty and I think VAR was affected by the previous call. This is the only explanation I can find.

After being tied at 2-2, the team once again took the lead. How do you evaluate the team's mental strength?

They (Crystal Palace) punished us and when they scored to make it 2-2 it was a difficult moment, but then we took the lead back and showed some character. It's hard to accept losing the ball in this way.

Crupi scored two goals today. How do you evaluate the performance of this young player?

For his confidence, (goals) are very important. He is a very important player for us. He's very composed for such a young starting option. I'm happy for him.
