McCann: We Showed Great Resiliance

Last updated : 31 December 2016 By CNS Sport

Peterborough United manager Grant McCann felt his side showed great resiliance to come back and snatch a point in the New Year's Eve game with Coventry City.

Speaking to the Press Association about the 1-1 draw, McCann said: "The first half was far from great and we all take responsibility for that.

"What I said at half-time doesn't really matter - it's the way the players reacted that's important.

"We showed great resilience and togetherness in the second half to get something out of the game.

"We put Coventry under pressure, created a lot of opportunities around their box and got the goal in the end.

"We're all disappointed to drop four points at home over Christmas, but it is a marathon not a sprint.

"We'll bounce back from this. It is such a tight league and we just need to keep ourselves in contention for the play-offs."
