Kane: Immature mistakes cost us... we’ll work to put it right

other persons, but directly, and for sure, we need to improve a lot to reduce the gap with the top teams.”

Conte made nine changes to the side that had started the Premier League win over Leeds on Sunday, with eight players making their first starts of his tenure.

They included Ryan Sessegnon, who the 52-year-old had talked up ahead of the game, but the wing-back endured a nightmare evening as he was sent off for two rash challenges inside the opening 32 minutes.

By that point, Mura already led through Tomi Horvat’s curling effort and though Kane (above) equalised on 72 minutes, Amadej Marosa’s strike in the fourth minute of stoppage time deflected in off Davinson Sanchez to win it for the hosts with the final kick of the game.

“It was unacceptable really,”

Kane said. “We made some immature mistakes and got punished for them and that’s what happens in Europe. All we can say is sorry to the travelling fans, sorry to the fans back home but we just have to keep working hard and turn things around.

“We are working hard and training hard, the manager has only had a few weeks and every day we are learning new things it is about getting that spirit and togetherness.”

Of Sessegnon’s sending off, Kane said:“He’s young and has not had too many European games. The referees are different, the atmosphere is different. He is devastated but he’ll learn from it.”
