After Anderlecht’s big victory against La Gantoise, David Hubert was obviously delighted, but also knew how to put things into perspective. He surprised by going in the direction of the opposing coach.
“The start of the match went as I feared,” began David Hubert after the match. “We asked to start immediately with intensity, but we didn’t do it properly in the first twenty minutes. The first goal broke the deadlock a bit, after which we got more into our game. From that moment on There, we played faster and maintained a high tempo of play. This was essential to put La Gantoise under pressure.”
Regarding Torunarigha’s red card, Hubert had a clear opinion. “I haven’t reviewed the footage yet, but if indeed he touches the ball, then I agree with Vrancken that the second yellow card is unfair.”
“It was a light contact, he didn’t put anyone in a position to score in danger and the red was much too harsh. We can call the foul, but it didn’t deserve more than that. This action led to the 3 -0 and La Gantoise completely sank,” recognizes the Anderlecht coach. The Mauves indeed took off at this crucial moment of the match.
However, Hubert also highlighted the progress made by his team in recent weeks. “Since the defeat against Club Brugge, we are much more disciplined. We respect the plan better and execute the tactics as requested. We want to play dominant football, but we also have to stay organized in moments of transition. We have done steps in this direction,” he rejoices.
Finally, the coach praised Kasper Dolberg, who once again stood out with two goals. “Dolberg shows that he has many more qualities than just being a finisher inside the sixteen meters. He is more and more involved in the game and becomes more and more formidable on the edge of the box. Mario is also adapting well and finds the connection more easily with Kasper A striker who plays with confidence and scores easily is a blessing for every team,” concluded David Hubert.
