"I’m disappointed in the loss, but especially the way we went about it. I don’t think there is any need to worry but we have to improve quickly," he told the media.
"It was the basics that we didn’t do very well. Hopefully, this is the only day this season we do that. They are very difficult to break down.
"Very disciplined, they defend deep and they don’t mind that. They have the quality on the break to hurt you. But it all started with ourselves. We were sloppy, and we were lucky that we have the best goalkeeper in the world to save us."
