"That was a big one. They're a good team - they're above us and they've been playing really well.
"I was impressed by us. The work-rate has been spot on.
"I made a couple of changes from Saturday to get some fresh legs in and I thought we scored some really good goals."
Salisbury City manager Mikey Harris told BBC Wiltshire:

"I'd like to apologise to the fans that came here tonight.
"I'm sure, like me, they came here with high hopes following a great result against Luton.
"But we didn't follow that up. I've said all season that a win on a Saturday is great, but you have to follow it up on the Tuesday.
"We've let the next game pass us by and we've missed out on a fantastic opportunity."
