One goal was the difference, as the Minstermen ran out 1-0 winners, but the Head Coach felt there were positive moments.
“It’s really tough to take,” commented Watson.
“The boys are really down – they felt they did enough to definitely get something from the game.
“We had some really good opportunities to score. We had one off the line in the first-half and the one-on-one just before half-time.
“In the second-half, we had another off the line, and the goalkeeper makes a really good save at the end.
“It hurts because we feel that the performance levels have improved a lot since two weeks ago.
“We were really aggressive off the ball and with the ball which caused a lot of transition moments. We had moments where we needed to be a little bit better with the last action to put the last man in on goal.
“I think if we cleaned that up, we could have hurt them a lot more. As a collective, I thought we had some good moments where we hurt the opposition and caused them a lot of problems.
“We kept on going, and I’m proud of the boys for that. There are loads of improvements that we’re getting. For sure we need more, but there’s no belief wavered in anything that we’re doing.”
