We ran out if energy - Moyes

Everton manager David Moyes admitted his side "ran out of energy" as Bolton snatched a 3-2 win at the Reebok Stadium.[LNB]The result completed a bad week for a depleted Toffees squad, who were thrashed 5-0 in Benfica on Thursday night, but Moyes felt his players had been unlucky under the circumstances.[LNB]"It was a long way to come from 2-0 down, but I thought we deserved to be back in it, that we had done enough," he said.[LNB]"But we ran out of steam with about 20 minutes to go. We didn't really have the personnel to make changes, but we're not using that as an excuse - we should never have been 2-0 down, never have got ourselves into that situation.[LNB]"I just told them (at half-time) to go on and win the game - I thought that it was there for us.[LNB]"When we got it back to 2-1 I thought we were in the ascendancy for periods and I thought if we could do the same we would get another goal, which we did. But when it got to 2-2 we stepped off it and ran out of energy."
