Cook on Oxford v Portsmouth
"There were spells where we were really poor, where we lost our way.
"I thought we showed a lot more maturity in how we wanted to play in the second half.
"There was a spell in the second half where we took total control of the game - unfortunately we couldn't go on and see it out."
