Michail Antonio admits frustration after West Ham FA Cup defeat

Michail Antonio admitted frustration after West Ham's FA Cup defeat to Southampton.

The striker scored for the first time since New Year, but ended on the losing team 3-1.

Antonio told whufc.com: "We did well until they scored their goal, and then we tried to chase and get back in, and we made a couple of mistakes.

"It was a very frustrating night. Onwards and upwards, basically. We've got to pick ourselves up from this and go again on Saturday.

"It was just a frustrating night.

"Obviously we wanted to go further in this competition [the FA Cup] and now we're out, so all we've got to do is concentrate on what we are in now, and that's the Europa League and the Premier League.

"We're still going for the top four, so with all the negatives that have happened today, we've got to think about the positives for the season.

"We've got the top four chase still and we're in the last 16 of the Europa League. Let's just see what we can do with those and keep moving forwards. Onwards and upwards."
