We've all narrowed off recovery runs.

We didn't scan and see the player at the back post and they've punished.

And it was a well-worked goal.

But ultimately, we can do better with defending a space and beyond.

And then from corners, we've worked on all week how they're going to attack the front post zone and we've allowed the player to run off the shoulder, get the free header and ultimately find yourself 2-0 down in a game that I don't think was a 2-0 game.

However, they've created the two moments, as you said, they've taken the two moments and we find ourselves a bit of a mountain to climb.

I thought we did some good work in the first half.

We got into the final third.

We created moments.

There's three massive, massive calls for penalties that have not been given.

We've looked back on them and I'm disappointed at least one of them wasn't given.

Jess Simpson's come right through the back of Megan Hornby, not given.

Amy Goddard's played a second one on Megan Hornby.

And I don't know what Meg's got to do to get a penalty or what we've got to do to get a penalty.

We had a massive shout against Newcastle, not given.

So I'd love to know the explanation behind them.

So they're difficult moments in a game like this when I felt that could have shifted the ascendancy.

And then in the second half, again, everything had a lot more of the ball, created good moments up until the final third, and then we conceded two goals and lost the game 4-0.

So it hurts, it's disappointing, there's a lot of emotion there, but I think once we give the dust a bit of time to settle on the game, we've really got to look and pick the bones out of it, because I don't think between both boxes I thought we were worthy, we competed well, but ultimately in the 18 boxes, both 18 boxes, we weren't good enough today.

I agree, and I said to them at half-time that the game's not gone.
