'Gutted, robbed, but time to focus on Thursday'

BBC News5 days ago
We asked for your views on Dundee United's 3-2 defeat by Hearts.Here is what some of you said:Jamie: Absolutely gutted for the players. Despite Thursday night's exertions and a depleted squad, we more than matched a Hearts side who have spent millions. Rayaan: United were robbed.Steven: Well, after Thursday night's performance and the amount of effort given by everyone, it's no surprise the players looked a bit tired in the second half. Players would've also had the return leg in their thoughts, and at times, players not winning 50/50s showed a lack of commitment. It's no surprise we didn't get the win today. I'm sure nobody wanted to get injured and left some effort out on the park. Seven goals conceded in three games is a worry for me. Must be tighter on Thursday.Drew: We were exhausted in the second half, but disappointed with the result. Now we look forward to Thursday against Vienna. We need reinforcements for our squad ASAP.Kenny: Just shocking defending for Hearts' second and third goals. United had the game in the bag until two crazy moments.
