Dundee United boss Jack Ross tells BBC Scotland: "For every plaudit we received last Thursday, we deserve every bit of criticism we get on the back of that.
"We conceded six goals in 26 minutes. That's not good irrespective of the opponent. It was a tough, tough night for us.
"All the discipline we showed in our play last week, we didn't do as well. We didn't deal with the period of adversity well. The goals from our point of view were poor. It's a sore, sore night.
"The players should feel sore, I feel sore. It's not a night for excuses, it's a night for realism."

Quote MessageIt's a hard one. You go over knowing its going to be tough but you're optimistic. To lose the game 7-0 is a real sore one. Sometimes you just have to move on. But that's easier said than done. It's a hard one to forget about.
