Adrian Segecic: 'There's lessons we need to learn'
- Published
Portsmouth attacker Adrian Segecic believes there are lessons to learn after he scored the equaliser in the 2-2 draw with Watford at Fratton Park.
Pompey took the lead inside the opening five minutes through Yang Min-hyeok, before two Watford goals in ten minutes at the start of the second half from Imran Louza and Rocco Vata, rocked John Mousinho's side.
The Portsmouth head coach brought on Segecic after 63 minutes, whose left-footed strike levelled the game.
"I thought the boys in the first half played really well actually," Segecic told BBC Radio Solent.
"I thought that we could have had a few more - that's what kills the game off and makes it two, three, four, five.
"But in the second half we gave the game away in about 30 seconds and then we're fighting back all second half.
"So a good first half where I thought we played well - just a few lessons we need to learn."
Australian Segecic signed for Pompey from Sydney FC in the summer and has scored three goals in the opening eight Championship games.
The 21-year-old has seemed to adjust to life in the Championship well and has an understanding of the cruel nature of the division.
"Sitting on the bench, I'm thinking how quickly the game can change and I thought towards the end we started to play like we did in the first half again," he said.
"The boys got back into the game, so it's one of those where if you switch off in the Championship for a few minutes you get punished.
"We're close to them on the ladder so it's not only the point that we get but it's taking two away from them as well. Also it's something we can learn from and build on now on the weekend.
"Middlesbrough haven't been beaten yet so I think it's a perfect chance here to do it."
