Occasional Digest - a story for you

It’s incredible we didn’t get three points after everything we created and we have to look at ourselves.

We gave two goals away and we should have done so much more with all the opportunities we generated. We should have scored five, six, seven, I don’t know how many.

Playing like that in any other sport, you win by 100 points. But we drew because we conceded two very, very poor goals and in this league when you give away goals like that you’re going to get punished.

We made life really difficult for ourselves with a mistake in the first minute to give them a goal and when you get back to 2-1 ahead you have to defend the box with your life.

You cannot concede that equaliser against 10 men after everything we had done to win the game. We have to show another level of commitment, desire and ‘over my dead body’.
