Clough said: “The performance in the first-half was frustrating to say the least, in the second-half we played with more urgency and you can see the difference in the game.
“We were slow and laboured in the first-half and the best we could have hoped for was getting in at 0-0, but from our point of view we have conceded a sloppy goal.
“We changed the focus a bit when we put Jamie Murphy down the middle and it was good ball by Ben Davies that created the goal.
“It was a great finish too, it can be difficult when you are clean through with so much time, but Jamie looked assured and in complete control.”
