How we conceded was really cheap – Struber

ERHARD Struber was left frustrated by the “cheap” nature of Bristol City’s defeat to Wrexham on Wednesday - and while the boss felt responsibility for the result ultimately lay with him and his players, he was disappointed with some of the decisions made by referee Ruebyn Ricardo.

The Robins slipped outside of the Sky Bet Championship playoff places with a 2-0 defeat at the Racecourse Ground. A fine first-half strike from Nathan Broadhead and an unfortunate second-half own goal from goalkeeper Radek Vitek proved to be enough for Wrexham.

Broadhead opened the scoring after just 16 minutes when he curled a right-footed shot from outside the area beyond Vitek and into the top right corner. Though City grew into the contest, the result was confirmed when George Thomason's corner struck the inside of the post before finding the back of the net via the Robins' stopper.

Between both goals, the Robins were unable to take advantage of the good positions they found themselves in. Although it was their slow start that ultimately proved costly, Struber was just as irritated by the lack of cutting edge.

"(I'm) really frustrated (with) how cheaply we lose this game," the head coach told Bristol Live - the sister website of the Daily Press - in his post-match press conference.
