It was a dramatic debut for Javier Torrente, Beerchot’s new coach. Two red cards spoiled his team’s game. “We have to be careful not to confuse emotion with mentality and make mistakes.”
“It was a strange match, with the red card after 5 minutes. We conceded that goal immediately and then there was also a second red card. Then you make it very difficult for yourself against a team like Yobin.”
Despite the dramatic course of the game, the home fans remained completely behind their team. “The fans were really great, they supported the team until the last minute. When the crowd stood behind the team, you could see that the boys still wanted it. Even with 9.”
“We have to avoid this in the future, we can’t play with 9 or 10. We will get out of this by keeping our head calm and playing with our hearts. The team is now in a complicated situation. We will have to work on the physical, tactical and especially mental side.”
Torrente realizes that a difficult task awaits him. “It will be very difficult, also because the previous coach spoke very negatively about this team. This team needs a lot of guidance to be competitive.”
“The physical and tactical aspect is always the responsibility of the staff. We will use the next international break to recharge the batteries.”
