Only one team change for a cup tie: watfordfc head coach Valerien Ismael explains why
“I don’t want to give the players the wrong signals. We are here to win and create momentum, to get minutes into legs and to get the fitness to the level we need to play.One commonality with Saturday was the flying start: not quite as fast as Tom Dele-Bashiru’s 34-second strike at Vicarage Road but Vakoun Bayo’s opener arrived with only five minutes on the clock.
“We started well again and we were quickly in control for half an hour and then for no reason – I really don’t know why – we completely lost control and didn’t play anymore,” said Ismael. “Just at the end of the first half we regained control and came through it, and then we changed some things tactically in the second half and the team reacted well.
“We are disappointed about the result because we should have won the game, especially in the second half.”
