Derby County manager John Eustace admits the goals the Rams conceded in their damaging 2-1 loss to Norwich City at Carrow Road were "really poor".
Derby's sixth loss in seven away league games has effectively ended their Championship play-off hopes and Eustace felt his side didn't execute their game plan well enough.
He told BBC Radio Derby: "I think the two goals we conceded were really poor first half. We tried to press them very high up the pitch. We won the ball back on a number of occasions, but we gave the ball straight back.
"I was happy with the game plan on that, I just wasn't happy with the execution in the first half and second half.
"I thought we created a number of chances where we could have scored. Obviously, they're a good team going forward and when you don't get your press right, they're going to attack you.
"I think Jacob [Zetterstrom] had only one save to make second half, and that was at the end. So I was really pleased with the effort, the attitude was great with the group. And with a little bit more quality on a different night, we possibly might have come away with something."
