Girona levelled from the penalty spot and then went in front. However, Trent Kone-Doherty scored a brilliant equaliser to ensure a vital result.

**On his reflections on the 90 minutes…**
I thought we started brilliantly. Playing away from home in Europe is never easy but I thought we passed the ball well, and I think when we took the lead it was deserved. The red card changes the game, which was disappointing from our point of view.
**On whether he thought the straight red card was harsh…**
Look, it's hard isn't it but what's disappointing for me was I don't think they got a yellow card in the game. For ours to be a red card is tough but decisions are made, and for us it was trying to find a way of getting a result. They are a good team and they haven't lost a game so to do what we did with 10 men was fantastic. We showed great character.
**On conceding so early after the restart and then going 2-1 down…**
It was a tough one really because I think there is a few questions marks about how long it took their lad to go down for the penalty. That's always difficult because it can play with your emotions as a player when you feel you are being hard done to. They then scored a good goal from distance and we were up against it, but we said to the lads we knew we'd get a chance if we can stay in the game. We've got pace and we've got good players and that's how it panned out.
