On Coquelin:

"He knows he made a big mistake. We knew at half-time, we warned him as well. It was a mistake. He wanted to do well and mistimed his tackle and got sent off. I cannot complain about it.

"He has to quickly learn from that. At the top level it is about full commitment and 100 per cent, but in a controlled way. When you have a yellow card it was a mistake to go down on the tackle."

On the game:

"I feel we have shown our attitude, our character. I'm happy and proud of our performance. We refused to lose the game. We have big regrets because I couldn't see at 11 against 11 how we could drop points today.

"We made a big mistake at 1-0 but even after the shock at 2-1 we didn't lose the game and we looked dangerous going forward."
