Aberdeen manager Jimmy Calderwood was disappointed to only draw 1-1 with Lokomotiv Moscow at Pittodrie in the Dons' second group game in the UEFA Cup.
After losing to Panathinaikos last month in their opening group encounter, Calderwood's side now face an uphill task if they are to reach the last 32 of the competition.
"It feels a little like a defeat," he admitted after the draw.
"I thought we started the game very well and then they got into it. I thought our passing was poor the whole game to tell the truth.
"But I think it says a lot about the club and where we've come from and where we are now that a club with the financial clout of Lokomotiv are happy to walk away with a draw at Pittodrie.
"I think the feeling is of disappointment. We knocked out an extremely good team to get here and we've not yet even shown what we're capable of, and that's what's so frustrating.
"I feel we could have taken something over in Greece and I also feel we could have taken three points tonight."
