"But when you concede a goal right at the end of the first half, the way it was conceded, it is not easy for the team who had been in control for those 45 minutes to have a reaction.
"We started the second half ok but every time we made a small mistake we conceded a goal and it is difficult for the team to react. It is frustrating because we did not deserve that result. In the first half we were the better team."
Sousa added, after seeing his team drop into bottom place in the Championship: "Of course I want to win every game and it is frustrating when you are not getting the reward you deserve. I am a manager with a lot of confidence and I know what way we need to walk and one thing I want to pass on to our fans is that they will need to support us and believe in our work. The results will come."
For Brian Laws it was a second home win of the season. "I thought there was a bit more cohesion today, especially after the first goal," he said. "we moved the ball sharper and caused them a lot of problems.
"We counter attacked really well, we are moving in the right direction and over the 90 minutes I thought we justifiably won the game.
"We are not shouting about anything, but we are delighted with that start and two wins in three gives everyone a boost. The work we have put in during pre-season is paying dividends but there is a hell of a long way to go."
Laws continued: "It wasn't comfortable early and I thought we were a little sloppy in the first period. If Leicester had their shooting boots on it could have been different, so there is clearly room for improvement.
"However, the first goal was always going to be key and it doesn't matter how you get it. It was a massive ricochet that got us going and it gave confidence to the players.
"I thought we really stepped it up a gear after the break. We passed it better and started to be more penetrative with the ball. We got the second goal because of that tempo and then Graham Alexander, a freak of nature, comes up with another terrific penalty. He's going on 40, but he plays like he is 21 and is such an example to others."
We made three substitutions during the last quarter of an hour and Laws had words for those players coming on and those who didn't make it. "It is frustrating for those players because they are good players in their own right," he said.
"To not be in the side is difficult to cope with and I have to say well done to them for showing great professionalism. How long that remains, we will see, but it will become more and more difficult as frustration gets the better of them.
"But if the team is doing really well, the door is not really open for them to get in there. If the opportunity comes, they have to grasp it and then someone else loses out."
