Nelson Semedo says the Wolves group left the Etihad feeling good about themselves, despite falling to a narrow defeat on Friday night.
The Old Gold’s winning run came to an end in Manchester after Kevin De Bruyne’s goal, but the visitors had big chances to claim a point which few would have argued was undeserved on the balance of play.
The woodwork twice denied Vitor Pereira’s side, but captain Semedo was remaining positive and is determined to maintain the positive feeling in the group during the remaining three matches this season.
On having chances to get something
“We had two good chances to score but we couldn't score. But I think we left this stadium with a good sensation. I think everybody gave everything of themselves, and I'm very proud of my team, and I think if we keep going this way, we’re going to do great things in the future.”
Thank you for all of your support throughout tonight's game.

On finishing the season strongly
“We want to finish the season in the right way. We have two games at home and one away, and we're going to go for it. We had six in a row winning and seven unbeaten. Today unfortunately we couldn't carry on with that level, but we have a lot of positive things to take from this game, and we're going to chase the three wins in the next three games.
“It was a tough season, but we're enjoying it now. We didn't start well – when Vitor came in we had nine points. We knew that we were not doing well, but we also knew that we had quality to do better, and that's what we're doing now. We didn't win today, but we showed team spirit, we showed quality. We have a lot of a lot of positive things to take from this game, and we have a bright future in front of us.”
On feeling in a positive way
“With Vitor arriving, we had a change, and the change was good. Also, we had the players that came to help. Agba came to help a lot, Munetsi, Nasser who is not playing that much, but he's helping us a lot on training. All of that together make us stronger.
“Also, the connection we have with the fans now, it makes us even stronger. Also, the way that Vitor wants to play every single game, he makes us better and we’ve proved prove it.”
