Newport County manager Justin Edinburgh told BBC Radio Wales:

"It's very disappointing. We've been punished for indecisive play in our final third.

"We created lots of chances today, but if you give goals away like that it's going to be hard to win games. You don't deserve anything out of a game if you give those types of goal away.

"It's been one of those days. He's [Tom Naylor] been excellent for us since he's arrived.

"Everything that could go wrong went wrong today. Good players bounce back and get stronger from that and I have no doubt that's what he'll do because he's a very good player."
