“But the way we started, we tried to regulate the items , but Yerson [Mosquera] came out and therein period, the way we suffered the goals, we gave two goals to them.

“But we've the facility and therefore the strength to show the sport to ourselves, from 2-0 to 2-2, then we create the higher chances to win.

“So, it’s a disappointing result, but I’m proud of what the boys did during the sport .”

On fighting back

“That’s been the sensation since the primary game. the most important thing we do and therefore the players, they're there, they're working very hard to undertake to play during this way and that we believe we will win more games during this way.

“But we are making some mistakes, some individual mistakes, some collective mistakes, and there are things we'd like to figure , because whenever we conceded easy chances for the opponents to attain .

“This is one side and therefore the other side is how we are creating chances to attain . The goals are coming. Today they came, two good goals. within the end, I’m happy, but I’m not satisfied with the result because we didn’t proceed within the cup.”

On falling short on penalties

“But this is often football.”

On learning from the weekend

“Every time we take something from the game. Winning or losing, we always take something to build on and it comes from that.

“Last game here, we suffered from the goals and we lose the control, and I think we learned from that game today.

“At two-nil down, you can’t worry, and if you don’t come to the emotional side, you stay focused on our plan and our tasks, and you keep going. We have that from the Brentford game, and for this game, we used that.
