Barnet boss Martin Allen struggles to comprehend Carlisle United loss

Barnet manager Martin Allen was unable to comprehend how his side ended up losing to Carlisle United following a 3-2 thriller in League Two.

The Bees overturned a 2-0 deficit before Derek Asamoah netted a winner for the hosts in the second half, but Allen insists that his side deserved more.

"You had to be here to believe it. I've never been involved in such a one-side dominant performance in 19 years," PA Sport quotes him as saying.

"We were 2-0 down and should have been six up in the first 15 minutes. Carlisle had one shot in the second half on the counter. It was a good performance by us, but we didn't take our opportunities.

"We looked good in open play and I'm sure if we keep our self-belief and keep the high level of intensity points will come our way."

The result leaves Barnet in 21st place in the table, while Carlisle climb to 11th.
