Middlesbrough manager Neil Warnocksaid:

"They probably have the best squad in the league and they are the best team at the moment in the league.

"We knew we had to be spot on with the tactics and I thought we were today, we had to let them have it at times at the back and Duncan Watmore put a right shift in for the time he was on the pitch.

"One or two little errors have cost us big time, but I can't take my hat off to them enough today, it would have been easy to throw the towel in and feel sorry for ourselves, probably four of our best players are injured now, and I thought we played some good stuff at times today in the right areas.

"I had to laugh with Yannick as he came over to take the free kick and I told him 'get in the box somewhere' and he scored."
