“Losing it not something we’re used to doing, which is a good thing.
“We’re disappointed with manner of it. We were very much in the game and had the big chance in the first half and then an individual mistake, which happens.
“The way we’re asking them to play, you do make mistakes and you have to react to those mistakes.”

“I think it rocked us and then the second goal happened soon after. If you concede one, you can never concede two and especially so quickly.
“And then it’s an uphill battle. In these tight games, big games, goals make the difference and they took their chances and we didn’t take ours.”
