"We weren’t beaten by the better team – it was down to little individual errors,” he said. "We had more of the possession and created two or three really good chances that we failed to capitalise on.
"In tight games you’ll only get three or four chances and you need to take at least one.
"We can take heart from going to a side who are third in the league and giving them plenty to think about, but must reflect on the fact they made fewer mistakes than us and were wiser and more experienced.
