Calderwood puzzled by defeat

Aberdeen manager Jimmy Calderwood could not understand how his side managed to lose 3-1 to Hearts on Sunday.
The Dons appeared to be in complete control of the Pittodrie clash, but fell behind to a 64th-minute Christophe Berra goal.
Mauricio Pinilla and Saulius Mikoliunas quickly added to the visitors' lead, before substitute Dyron Daal netted a late consolation.
A disgruntled Calderwood said: "It was a game we dominated until they scored, but the first goal is always vital.
"Hearts took a big lift from that and, when we then started to push forward, we were caught with two sucker-punches.
"If we had scored first, then I think we would have won the game, but Hearts got the break and went on to take the points."
