“ It’s sad to see things like that in a football stadium. I don’t want to argue. We can be frustrated, and supporters have the right to be, but there are limits.

Paradoxically, even if we are down 1-0 at the break, the half that I preferred was the first. I found that we had a lot of control, especially in playing under pressure, in the low releases. »
