00:10Yeah, listen, we got ourselves in front and there was a spell in the second half

00:16where I thought we actually defended pretty well.

00:18I know they had a lot of the ball and they weren't really doing a lot with it

00:21and then the first goal comes from a bit of a free kick and the ball opens up

00:25and then all of a sudden their tails are up, you know,

00:27and when you're going through the run that we've gone through

00:31then it becomes a bit more difficult and then the referee to make a decision

00:34like he did for the second goal, it's a totally wrong decision in my opinion.

00:39I think it was Kel didn't even try to attempt to play, he actually tries to jump out the way

00:46and then that's it, you know, we're coming away with nothing,

00:49so yeah, bitterly, bitterly disappointed.
