' Phillip Cocu & Neil Warnock '

Derby County manager Phillip Cocu told BBC Radio Derby:



"Even as the game proceeded at 1-1, we still tried to find a way to play forward and play through Cardiff with low passes from the back.

"It's just unfortunate that we couldn't score the goal in the second half that we deserved for our performance and for the fans.

"It was a clear penalty on Martyn Waghorn and a clear possibility to score a second goal.

"We've talked many times about if you can score a second goal at home, the game is done. But we couldn't convert the chances we created, which is a pity as our offensive play deserved to be rewarded."









Cardiff City boss Neil Warnock said:



"I think the quality in the final third let us down again tonight. I thought that was the same in one or two games.

"But on the other side of the coin we lost at Wigan and Reading and defensively we were poor.

"So it's a matter of trying to build slowly and try and get together and make sure that we're solid and I thought we looked solid tonight."
