We didn't execute our plan as well as we could do and suffered from lack of depth in the match day squad, especially in the heat. Myself and the players are dissapointed. We didn't give a good account of ourselves to day. But we know we have a lot of talent , and can make some big improvements going forward, and that will be our focus as we pick up League matches in the coming weeks. Work to do, but confident we will get there quickly."
