Derby head coach Paul Warne:

“First 20 minutes, it doesn’t matter what shape you play, you have got to be intense, you have got to be aggressive in the tackle and with your press and we weren’t.

“I have said this in every interview, that’s on me.

“We had a really good call for a penalty on Callum. I have seen it back and it looked more than valid.

“But from an actual effort point of view and everyone giving everything for the shirt and for the club, that was right up there.”

Swansea head coach Luke Williams:

“We made it very hard for ourselves. The first 20-25 minutes, I thought we were excellent and from that point we lost a grip of the game and it was a rearguard action from us for an hour or so.

“I thought Derby were excellent in terms of the way they regrouped and the energy they threw at the game. They caused us a lot of problems and we didn’t have an answer particularly for that.

“We defended the box really well, which we have done time and again, but it would have been a better game for us if we’d been able to control it for longer.

“We struggled from 2-0 for the rest of the game. We had to stand up to the atmosphere and be strong and the players did that fantastically.”
