Vítor Pereira criticizes team star: “I won’t tolerate it next time”
Wolverhampton coach didn’t like Matheus Cunha’s ‘body language’
Vítor Pereira left harsh criticisms of Matheus Cunha , star of the Wolverhampton team , after the defeat at Stamford Bridge, against Chelsea , in the 22nd round of the Premier League .
“He’s a captain, he can get frustrated because he wants to win… But everyone in the dressing room wants to win. I don’t like his body language. I understand this time, but I won’t tolerate it next time,” he said, speaking to the BBC .
«We played against a strong team, with players who, one-on-one, can create opportunities. We didn’t start the game the way I like. We defend a lot in a low block. We conceded two goals from set pieces and one goal that we couldn’t concede. We have to improve tactical maturity», he added.
On the other side, Enzo Maresca liked Chelsea ‘s performance in the first 40 minutes, assuming that Wolverhampton were better in the final stretch of the first half.«In the first 40 minutes we were better. The performance was excellent, we dominated the game and created many opportunities. In the last five minutes, Wolverhampton gained confidence and scored. In the second half, we started very well and controlled after the two goals”, he said, coming to the defense of Robert Sánchez, who was surprised in the Wolves goal .
“How many times has he saved us? More than four. So it’s okay. Mistakes happen,” he said.
