Defence not to blame for Everton exit - Martinezpublished at 08:14 Greenwich Mean Time 20 March 2015
Everton boss Roberto Martinez is probably not looking forward to his press conference at 14:00 GMT after his side were dumped out of the Europa League by Dynamo Kiev on Thursday night.
The Toffees lost the second leg 5-2 to exit 6-4 at the last-16 stage, with two poor first-half clearances gifting Dynamo key goals.
The central defensive partnership of Phil Jagielka and Antolin Alcaraz struggled throughout but the Spaniard did not want to blame them.
"A couple of times we made defensive mistakes, but there was also some incredible finishing," said Martinez.
