For its third Champions League outing, tomorrow evening at Bosuil with the arrival of Porto, Antwerp is already up once morest the wall. As it was already (and especially) when Shakthar Donetsk came on the 2nd day (2-3 defeat). And as he will be until the end of the campaign in his quest for units essential to 3rd place in the group.

We don’t lose hope ” declared Saturday evening, in Charleroi, the Antwerp goalkeeper Jean Butez.Whoever the opponent is, whatever their name and prestige, we start each game with the desire to win. We remain confident because we have a great team… and even a great bench, we saw it once more this Saturday in Charleroi (NDLA: where the two substitutes It’s clear et Ejuke provided the 2-2 as soon as they entered the game… before the final 3-2 ofLong lasting). “

Except that following two Champions outings, Antwerp has… zero points on its scoreboard. After the spanking received in Barcelona (5-0), the Great Old played with its happiness by cornering Donetsk (2-0 at the break) before collapsing in the 2nd period, in what was already the crucial duel for the 3rd place.

In Barcelona, ​​we knew that getting started would probably be too difficult ” continues Butez. ” We suffered the law of intensity and details so typical of the Champions League. Against Shakthar, we dominated the match but we came away empty-handed, once more due to a question of efficiency. From these two matches, I remember that even if you take control of a match, the perfect management of every detail and every little moment is the key factor in the Champions League. We can’t let go of anything.
