Blackpool boss Jose Riga "satisfied" by point at Middlesbrough

Riga "satisfied" by point

Blackpool boss Jose Riga has said that he is "satisfied" by his team's draw away to Middlesbrough on Tuesday.

The Seasiders picked up only their third point of the season last night as Ishmael Miller's goal earned them a share of the spoils at the Riverside Stadium.

While admitting that he will not be happy until his side has their first win of the campaign, Riga is pleased with how his players performed in the North-East.

"I am satisfied. I will obviously be happier when we get our first win but I am satisfied," he is quoted as saying by BBC Sport. "We have to build on good results. We created some chances to win and this is certainly the first step."

Blackpool continue their Championship campaign on Friday when they entertain Cardiff City.
