Charlton Athletic boss Nathan Jones says that his side "wasn't good enough" following their 3-0 defeat to Stoke City on Tuesday.
The Addicks were 2-0 down by the opening five minutes and were unable to pose any real threat to the hosts.
"We've come here looking to bounce back and that start has killed us because goals change games," Jones told BBC Radio London.
"It's very difficult to say I'm pleased about anything tonight because we have just lost 3-0 away from home.
"We were really open. We weren't at the levels we needed to be.
"The first was a stroke of good fortune and the second we feel is a foul and the third is a big error again. You have to defend it better.
"We have been stretched in recent weeks, injury-wise, but it wasn't good enough."
