Lewis Travis: Derby County midfielder says defeat at Millwall 'tough to take'

Derby County midfielder Lewis Travis says the frustration of losing at Millwall on Tuesday will not diminish the Rams' desire to reach the Championship play-offs.

Josh Coburn's first-half goal earned Millwall victory against a Rams side that were left to rue a number of missed opportunities, even before Patrick Agyemang hit the post in search of a stoppage-time equaliser.

Derby's fourth defeat in seven games has left them seventh in the table, three points adrift of Wrexham in the play-off spots immediately above them after the Welsh side were beaten by Hull City.

When asked if there were a feeling of frustration in the dressing room after the loss, Travis told BBC Radio Derby: "Yeah, 100%.

"It was a tough one to take given the chances we had.

"We had four golden opportunities, and we have played games in the past with less opportunities and won. It's just about being clinical and today we didn't get the rub of the green.

"We are all competitors and are dying, dying, dying to get into the top six. And we feel that was three points [dropped], but there are nine games left and there is no reason why we can't go put a run together to get into the top six."

Derby are next back in action on Monday when they travel to face Portsmouth.
