Saunders bemoans defensive "mistakes"

Wolverhampton Wanderers manager Dean Saunders has admitted that his side were the makers of their own downfall during today's 2-1 defeat to Cardiff City.

Fraizer Campbell scored from two set-piece situations for the visiting league leaders to render Bakary Sako's goal a mere consolation strike.

"They have scored from set plays and things we have talked about so it is two mistakes really," he told the club's official website.

"When you are a coach and you walk through things on the training pitch including the long throw from Gunnarsson you want everyone to mark properly.

"But the flick on comes and Fraizer Campbell runs in and scores and that drives you mad as a coach and makes matters worse. We'd showed it on the DVD and it's one of those goals that keeps you awake as a manager."

The loss means that Wolves remain 22nd in the Championship standings and are two points from safety.
