Gary Rowett hails Derby County players following victory over Cardiff City
Derby Telegraph
Gary Rowett hailed Derby County’s “massive show of courage” in their 3-1 victory over Cardiff City tonight.
GARY ROWETT:
“I would sum it up as a massive show of courage from the players,” Rowett told Sky Sports.
“You can see it is such a difficult game against Cardiff – the ball is hardly in play at times.
“You can’t switch off for one second.
“We started the game really brightly, but as you know against Cardiff if you switch off for a second they can punish you.
“I felt we played well enough up to that point (the opening goal).
“It was a big evening for us, I said to the players before the game there are no second chances, lay it all out on the pitch.
“We played with such good quality at time and our finishing was excellent.
“Full credit to the players, they were brilliant this evening.”
