“I think we did a fantastic job,” he said.
“I think we can be very proud of our team, every payer did everything, gave everything. This is how we have to play in big matches.
“We were better in every area of the first half, they were much better pushing for the winning goal in the second half.
“It was a fair point. Both teams didn’t deserve to lose. We want to be champions, we are Rivers United, we have to win matches.
“We just tried to win every battle, every duel. We knew in advance it was going to be a big fight away from home.
