Ipswich Town duo Drissa Diallo and Kevin Horlock have called for Town to concentrate for the full 90 minutes of matches.

The pair have called for Town to concentrate at set pieces after watching Watford score two inside ten minutes to take a point at Vicarage road after Town had been 2-0 up.

Diallo: “Some draws you can take and accept as a good result. But others, like Saturday at Watford, you cannot.

“We defended well for most of the game, but let ourselves down at set pieces. This cost us two valuable points and it was very disappointing.

“We have got to learn to concentrate for the full 90 minutes and not perhaps ease off a bit when we go in front.”

Horlock added: “Perhaps too many of us thought it was too comfortable at 2-0 up and maybe we got a little bit slack and let them back into the game.”

But the midfielder believes you can’t blame goalkeeper Lewis Price for Watford’s 2nd goal adding: “The kid's done absolutely brilliant for us and you can't blame him.

“That's the thing with keepers, you can make just a slight mistake and it costs you a goal. But he's been terrific for us in the last few games and he's still only young and has a great future ahead of him.”
