The ball management was good. The Belgians made it circulate within 75 meters. At times, the level was even very good. But, the latter was missing. The last gesture towards the circle was less precise which is explained by the defensive quality of the opponent. We only provoked one PC when it is our weapon. The frustration was palpable at the end of the game. They came out of their structure. The two strokes? On the first, Guillaume Hellin plays the ball. I understand his frustration. On the second, Arthur Van Doren slides on his lap. We don’t see what is whistled. The action is questionable. Loic Van Doren took four goals so what? We remove the two strokes. He can’t do anything about it. He also stopped some decisive bullets that keep the Belgians in the meeting. I do not find that Loic is faulty. The culprit is to be sought elsewhere. We lose the structure at times. I remain positive and confident for the future. Faced with the Netherlands, I found them serene. Everyone touches the ball. The energy is good. They stayed in the match for a long time. The Netherlands are in another stage of development than us. They experienced an Olympic cycle together. There is no point in drawing conclusions in a single match. This defeat is logical. We knew from the start that the third hen meeting would be a quarter -final. Shane McLeod prepared it properly.
