Jo Kuffour looked like the matchwinner on Saturday until the 87th minute

Bristol Rovers striker Jo Kuffour says they must focus on producing another unbeaten run following Saturday's late 2-1 loss to Leicester City.

The Pirates had not lost in seven matches since their 2-1 defeat at Cheltenham on 16 September.

But Barry Hayles, who scored the two goals that day on loan at Cheltenham, helped create the first of Matty Fryatt's two late goals for the Foxes.

And Kuffour, who had put Rovers ahead, admitted it was "very hard to take".

"In this division," he told the club website, "anyone can beat anyone.

"We've got to keep our heads up, and set about going on another run of unbeaten games."

The Pirates' next test is this Saturday against Bournemouth at Dean Court (8 November, 1500 GMT).
