John Butez knew it well: “Each defeat is painful but this one, once morest a direct rival who overtakes us in the standings, hurts, that’s for sure”, he begins following the defeat. “There was an improvement compared to the previous weeks, with better movements, better combinations even if it was insufficient. We still bothered them a bit here, we created chances but what counts, it is to put them at the bottom”.
The Antwerp goalkeeper also conceded a penalty. “It’s difficult to express myself without having seen the images once more, but there is contact. Afterwards, I try to withdraw and he continues his race, it’s difficult to judge, but for the referee, it is a penalty, that’s how it is”, regrets Butez, who knows that the race for the top 4 is far from over. “It’s going to be tough and tight until the end. We’ll have to take the three points next week and build on what has been done well here. It’s going to be exciting and we’re going to do everything not to let go of this top 4 “, hopes the Antwerp goalkeeper.
