Addressing Fernandes’ red card, Amorim insisted they had “tried” but the sending off was “really hard” for his team.

“Of course it’s a step backwards if you lose if we don’t win. The sending off was really hard. “The goal was similar against Tottenham,” said Amorim.

“Then we tried it. Even with one man less we tried and I think we were close to achieving something, but then Wolves scored the second goal. Then at the end we tried everything and it was 2-0. Things continue for us.

“It’s so hard to win games in this league with 11 men. It’s more difficult with 10 men. That’s what we need to focus on.”

“We need to improve relations, but we have some moments. We lack a bit of aggression, but we don’t train. We just play and try to find a better way to win games and that’s it.

“We can’t control the games like the others we lost. I think we always had control of the game, we didn’t always dominate, but we had control of some things, some set pieces. The sending off was really hard for us.”
