Bournemouth boss Eddie Howe was disappointed with the manner of his side's 3-1 defeat to Brentford on Saturday afternoon.
The Cherries trailed going into half time after keeper Artur Boruc made a crucial mistake, fumbling Alex Pritchard's free kick into the net to leave the visitors with an uphill task in the second half.
Despite their best efforts, Bournemouth were unable to notch an equaliser and substitute Chris Long secured the win for the Bees in stoppage time with a strike on the counter-attack.
"The players responded very well in the second half and we knocked on the door and created enough chances to win two games," Howe told Sky Sports News.
"We didn't get that elusive equaliser and ultimately the only criticism I had from the game - apart from the goals - was the way we chased the game in the final 10 minutes.
"We were chasing the game because time was running out and we were against the clock. The decision-making with 10 minutes to go wasn't particularly good."
Bournemouth dropped out of the automatic promotion places in the Championship as a result of their defeat to Mark Warburton's men.
