“These things happen, the fans have supported us and it can happen that the fans whistle you for a misplaced shot,” the Coach said after the 2-1 win.

“However, Lorenzo was under stress because he saw that we were heading for an undeserved defeat.

“The fans must accept vents from players, who in turn must understand any criticism they receive, especially during times of tension, when the team are at a disadvantage.”
