“I’ve got to take a lot of responsibility. I made some substitutions which didn’t work. In the past games we have made some substitutions which have enabled us to continue to stay in front and continue to hang on in games and although I say it myself they have been the correct ones.

“Tonight I didn’t make the right decisions from the bench I should have done.”
