Luton boss Rob Edwards could not hide his disappointment following Burnley\u2019s late winner, admitting his side should have got more from the game.<\/p>\n
Jacob Bruun Larsen\u2019s stunning strike made it 2-1 just one minute after Elijah Adebayo had drawn the Hatters level as the Clarets snatched a first win of the Premier League season.<\/p>\n
Edwards said the result hurt after Luton had got off the mark with a 2-1 win at Everton on Saturday.<\/p>\n
\u201cI\u2019m obviously really disappointed with the result, we\u2019re down, flat and hurting because of the manner of it (the loss),\u201d Edwards said.<\/p>\n
\u201cWe pushed, we had set-pieces, we went forward in numbers and were brave, aggressive and didn\u2019t allow them the control they wanted.<\/p>\n
\n<\/p>\n
\u201cBut we come away with nothing and that hurts.<\/p>\n
\u201cThe lads gave everything. The fans were clapping at the end and if they\u2019re doing that then we\u2019re doing the right things, but everybody will be disappointed because we should have taken something from the game.\u201d<\/p>\n
Luton were left to rue missed chances, having taken just one of 18 attempts.<\/p>\n
And Edwards admitted his side, who have scored six goals in seven matches, are struggling to find the back of the net.<\/p>\n
\u201cWe had big chances and openings, so if we weren\u2019t doing that I\u2019d be more worried. But we did create and I think there are positives and we\u2019re going in the right direction,\u201d he added.<\/p>\n
\u201cIt\u2019s the hardest part of football, scoring a goal, we have to keep arriving, trying to create the chances, be there with good numbers, keep working on technique, which we can practice in training.<\/p>\n
\u201cBut other than that it\u2019s down to the players to find a way to put it in.<\/p>\n
\u201cI thought we pretty much dominated the second half.<\/p>\n
\u201cWe\u2019ve had 15 shots inside the box tonight and only scored one. That\u2019s proving to be the difficult thing for us at the moment.\u201d<\/p>\n
Vincent Kompany was delighted after his side \u201cbattled\u201d in the second half to pick up points on the road.<\/p>\n
\n
\n<\/p>\n
He said: \u201cIt was a complete performance in the first half and in the second half it was a battle and we showed character. From our defenders to our midfielders, coming in for second balls.<\/p>\n
\u201cThose who know us from the Championship will know we enjoy these type of games as well and it\u2019s not something we shy away from.\u201d<\/p>\n
