After a match with hardly any chances, coach Vincent Kompany waited for “the interpretation of the specialists”. That provoked a reaction from some supporters. Kompany responded openly to that criticism at a press conference.
“The reality is simple: we didn’t win the class at home. I communicate with a balance that I take into account with my players. I understand everyone’s reaction. If it stays 0-0, it is a missed opportunity”, says Kompany.
“For the clasico I gave the floor to the youngest player of the team. He is 16 years old. I asked him to explain what a classico means to him. He understood everything: the fight and the importance of the match. . “
Kompany understands the supporters: “I know what happens if you don’t win the Clasico. I remember that we were 8 points ahead of Standard in my time, but lost the Clasico 4-1. Then 1000 supporters were kicking at us. when we returned. “
