Chris Hughton urged Tomer Hemed to shrug off his penalty failure at Wolves today.
But the Albion boss admitted his side should have created more chances in the 0-0 draw at Molineux.
Hemed’s spot-kick and follow-up were kept out by home goalkeeper Emi Martinez, who also dealt well with crosses.
But he was not overly tested, even after the hosts had Conor Coady red-carded on 49 minutes.
Hughton said: “They are a very good side with a lot of pace and power and generally a draw here is a good result.
“But the way the game went and them going down to ten men, I’m probably a little bit more frustrated.
“You want to put yourselves in a position where you can get penalties.
“We found that very difficult last season.
“At this moment Tomer has already scored one for us.
“But you’ve got a goalkeeper to beat and the goalkeeper made a fabulous save.
“All Tomer has to do is dust himself down and look forward to the next one."
Hughton added: "We had other opportunities and certainly we had enough possession to have created a little bit more ourselves.
“I thought we got into enough good areas, certainly on the flanks, to have created a little bit more.”
