Chivu said: “I have no explanation for what happened. I just know the result and that we played poorly.
“After ten minutes we were down one goal. Another ten minutes and we were three down. Everyone must accept they were at fault for what happened.
“We tried to react, but when we pushed forward we left ourselves exposed at the back. There’s no excuses. We did everything we could – within our ability. But the goals just kept coming.”
