Following Belgium's Europa League group stage win over Romania, Belgian goalkeeper Castells spoke to Sporza to share his thoughts on the match and his own feelings.
Castells mentioned that the Belgian team showed two different styles in the game. In the first half, they played well, controlled the field through numerical superiority and created many breakthrough chances, but unfortunately failed to lock the game early. In the second half, although Belgium's time of possession was reduced, they showed great threat in counter-attacks, which was one of their major advantages.
Speaking about the defense, Castles said that overall, the team's defense was very solid. The whole team was relieved when the game went 2-0 because that score secured their lead.
About his assist in the game, Castles felt very satisfied. He said that it gave him a great pleasure to help his team score a goal. At the same time, he also mentioned that even if he didn't have much to do during the game, he was happy because it meant that the rest of the team was doing their job well. He emphasized that his job as a goalkeeper is to do his job and in today's game he managed to do that.
In the end, Castells said they were very happy with the shutout and the win. This victory is not only a reflection of the team's overall strength, but also the result of every player's hard work. They will continue to maintain this good form to meet the challenges of the next matches.
