Trainer Maarten Martens is happy that AZ got the play-offs of the Conference League on Thursday despite an early red card from Ro-Zangelo Daal in Liechtenstein. The coach is especially critical of his attacker.
The 21-year-old Daal initially gained yellow for a violation after ninety seconds in the away match against FC Vaduz. The VAR intervened and after viewing the images, the referee pulled the red card.
AZ kept up with ten men. The Alkmaarders even won 0-1, which after the earlier victory in-house (3-0) was spacious enough for a place in the last preliminary round of the Conference League. Nevertheless, Martens hopes for Get Get Get Get and Get.
“It was not so well portrayed, so I can hardly judge it,” the coach told Ziggo Sport afterwards. “But we are not happy that it happened and are also critical. He has been self -critical and has also expressed it in the group. He must certainly learn from this.”
Strikingly enough, Martens did not intervene when his team with ten men came to stand. AZ did play football a lot more defending, which resulted in only 19 percent possession of the ball. “I thought it was inappropriate to remove a player.”
Martens speaks of a “special competition”. “All the boys in the field have fought hard. That makes me proud,” he said. AZ plays in the play-offs of the Conference League against the Bulgarian club Levski Sofia. The duels will be played on August 21 and 28. AZ starts the diptych with an away game.
