“In the first half we were controlling many moments of the game," reflected Corberan.

“The team was in a good position but at times we did not make the right decision with the final details to create more chances.

“That is something we wanted to improve on in the second half by having more accuracy in our passes.

“Fortunately we were able to score a goal to go ahead but we then suffered in the last minutes of the game when we did not play with enough maturity."

Clarke-Harris was introduced for the home side after 55 minutes and Corberan felt his presence caused his side problems.

He continued: “The game was more physical in the second half and when Peterborough put their number nine (Clarke-Harris) on the pitch he was able to win aerial challenges and they could put more balls into the box.

“That is exactly what happened for their goal and we are now feeling frustration because we came here to try to win the three points but we only have one.”
