Union won at Vigo on Thursday. They went behind early, turned the match around, then suffered until the end. Hervé Koffi made several saves. Celta did not equalise.
I read about it on Monday at the chip shop, in my weekly, to check that the score hadn’t changed. It hadn’t.
The goalkeeper told Voetbalprimeur: “It wasn’t very academic, but I enjoyed myself. The most important thing is not to concede goals.” He enjoyed himself. In 1980, a goalkeeper under siege did not enjoy himself. He was cold, he had mud up to his knees, and he was happy on Tuesday. I’m not criticising. I’m comparing.
Note that the second half of his sentence suits me. Not to concede. It was the only thing we asked of a goalkeeper. We did not ask him to have a pleasant evening.
David Hubert told RTBF it was the hardest match of the season. The coach suffers, the goalkeeper enjoys himself. It used to be the other way round.
Mine enjoys himself too, Marcel. Especially when it’s pouring and he gets to dive.
Besfort Zeneli scored twice, then missed a penalty. Adem Zorgane came back after a month and a half. Celta had never lost to a Belgian club in eight European matches. They have lost one now. Union are fourth, ten points out of twelve. Well. It’s the times.
It’s true, we checked: DH Les Sports+.
