Moussa was given his marching orders after 65 minutes for violent conduct with the game evenly poised at 3-3, leaving his team-mates to try and hold on for a draw.[LNB]But the Shrimpers were denied a vital point at the death when Anthony Grant's stoppage-time own goal handed the hosts victory.[LNB]Tilson vented his frustration at Moussa in the aftermath of the loss, describing the way he kicked out at Byron Anthony as "very poor". He refused to criticise the unfortunate Grant, however, and added his struggling team deserved a point.[LNB]"It was very poor by Frank to leave us with 10 men, particularly in the circumstances of such a close game," said Tilson. "Tony could do nothing about the own goal and it was just one of those things. We certainly deserved more from the game because we created most of the chances."[LNB]Tilson added: "Their goalkeeper has made some good saves even after we went down to 10 men. We kept on attacking and Scott Spencer might well have had a hat-trick. We have to keep going and lift ourselves again. After going 3-2 down the lads fought tremendously hard, which is encouraging."[LNB][LNB]
