Trevor Gorman: “It’s difficult to recover from a nightmare start to any game but our guys were amazing the way they fought for 90 minutes. To go down 2-0 so early and show what we did was all about character. We had a goal disallowed to make it 2-1 and out shot them 7-1 in the second half. There are no moral victories but if we continue these performances, we can earn results”
