Portsmouth manager Danny Cowley:

“We knew that Cheltenham were a threat from throw-ins, but we didn’t react well enough and conceded a really soft goal.

“When you’re playing against such a resolute side and they go ahead, they move to a back five and make it very difficult for you.

“But we responded – it took us a little bit of time, but we did. We scored the equaliser and then just lacked a bit of quality in the second half.

“That’s ultimately why we didn’t win the game. There were maybe three clear-cut chances and we need to take them.

«This was a game we desperately wanted to win and if I’m being totally honest, I just want better for us.»

“There’s a positive that we created them and I certainly couldn’t fault the intensity or the commitment of the players.

“But this was a game we desperately wanted to win and if I’m being totally honest, I just want better for us.”
