The day following the frustrating split between the Devils and Georgia at Euro U21, Jacky Mathijssen spoke at the microphone of Lancelot Meuwelaeter.

The coach of the Diablotins first mentioned the meeting during which the Belgians nevertheless led 2-0. “It was avoidable when you see what we did in the first half, there was no reason to change. In the first half, we were able to block all their counterattacks. After the break, we tried to go for the third goal but in a very strict organization but we didn’t do the same thing, our starting position was not ideal to block them very high, maybe that made the difference .”

Unable to manage the advantage at the scoreboard, the Imps still have references on which to rely in the future. “These kinds of things happen often. One club has mastered this better than the others, it’s Real Madrid. At international level, Croatia manage to install even more discipline once they score. Maybe it’s be an example, we must try to introduce it with our voluntary and very energetic game. We want to play attacking but we need a certain discipline even if, sometimes, we are tempted to go and help even more by the youth and the inexperience. We must learn from it”has explained Mathijssen.

Before the last game once morest Portugal, the presence of Robert Martinez as team A coach appears to be a disadvantage for us. “It’s definitely an advantage for them.he conceded. He followed all the matches of the Devils but that’s how it is.”
