Technical errors

"I think we played consistently before halftime, but there were too many technical errors. We showed some good things in defense. On their goal, it started with a throw-in for us that was two meters too far, and then we were punished for our depth management. "

The opponent

“We had studied their pressure, which is very strong on the front line, and we knew that if we were able to get out of that, there would be opportunities. The team did well, but behind them we continued to play short, when there were spaces to exploit.”

Determination

"You have to hang in there, show character, and be strong. We tried to show all that tonight. In a difficult situation, you can't give up. I'm very aware of what needs to be done in terms of hard work and commitment to get the club out of this slump. These are temporary difficulties that we've been experiencing for four games. I won't budge on that. I want to show that my passion and desire are intact despite the difficulties."

Mathys Silistrie learning the ropes

“When we decide that Mathys is number 2, it's normal for him to play. Like all the young boys in the club, he will develop by experiencing moments like these, matches like these. I found him interesting in bringing the ball out. It's obviously difficult against a very good team.”
