Andoni Iraola praised Bournemouth for their tenacity during their FA Cup match against Wolves, noting they were the more aggressive team. Despite a challenging game characterized by missed chances and a controversial VAR decision, Bournemouth emerged victorious through a penalty shootout after a 1-1 draw. They took a staggering 31 shots, showcasing their attacking capabilities. Wolves' Matheus Cunha equalized but was sent off late in the game, complicating matters for his team. Overall, Iraola felt Bournemouth deserved the win despite facing numerous difficulties in the match.
It was a game only one team tried to win. I think we were in control of the game. But they found a way, Cunha... it was an amazing goal.
We should have scored two or three goals today. It could have easily been 3-0. We didn't punish them when we were playing better.
We deserved to go to the next round, but we had to do it in a difficult way. I think everything has gone against us today.
I'm proud of the team for showing character to get through extra time, as they played for spot-kicks.
