"It was very much a point gained, a hard-earned point, but one we certainly deserved," the Boro boss said after the game.
"We had the majority of the game, certainly in the second half. It was pretty much one-way traffic for long periods of the second half.
"We allowed them a few breaks and they had a chance near the end which we shouldn't have allowed them to have, but I am very pleased with how we played.
"Sometimes you draw a game and you are disappointed with the performance, but I thought bar the finishing touch, we had pretty much everything."
