'It's frustrating' - Ghana star Antoine Semenyo after Man United draw

Antoine Semenyo, who scored Bournemouth’s goal in the draw against Manchester United on Sunday, has expressed his frustration after the game.

Following his goal against United in Bournemouth’s 1-1 draw in the Premier League, the 25-year-old has taken his tally to 11 goals in 38 games in all competitions.

The Ghana international has registered six assists, earning plenty of admiration from top clubs in England, including Arsenal, who they play next, according to reports.

Semenyo is seen as one of the few versatile forwards who is an excellent ball-striker, and has the energy to close down defences in a press.

In an interview with Sky Sports after the disappointing draw with the Red Devils, the forward spoke about a game he feels they should have won, the controversial red card to Evanilson, and their “tough” trip to Arsenal.

And then ahead of facing Arsenal at the Emirates in their pursuit of European football, Semenyo said his side were ‘confident’.

He said: “It’s frustrating.

“We dominated most of the game. We went down to 10 men but I felt we were still quite comfortable.

“We defended so well. The goal we conceded is so frustrating. It feels like a loss, to be honest.

“I feel like there wasn’t much more we could do. All we could do was defend as a group and hope not to concede.

“We’re just unfortunate to concede with the last shot they had.

“The teams above us can lose next week and we can go above them. We just have to go on to next week.

“We have a tough game [against Arsenal], but the boys will be confident enough going to the Emirates.

“It’s not getting easier, but I have full belief in the team that we can do something.”

Mikel Arteta’s main focus will understandably be on the club’s Champions League campaign, and Bournemouth will look to capitalise on that to get something out of the fixture to boost their own European ambitions.
