Plymouth boss Peter Reid praised his side after they bounced back from their defeat at Torquay with a tour-opening 1-0 win over Dutch top-flight side NAC Breda. Substitute Joe Mason's 74th-minute header topped a solid and committed performance that saw off the Eredivisie team. The Pilgrims had fallen to a 3-1 pre-season friendly defeat to Torquay on Tuesday night and Reid was delighted with his side's response. He said: "I commented that you learn something when you get defeated and I learned something at Torquay, but hopefully I've seen a true performance. "I thought we were excellent. Our shape was good, we frustrated them when we didn't have the ball and some of the counter-attacking play was good. "Everyone's had a good run-out and I'm pleased with everybody that took part. It was a good performance."
