Sporting de Charleroi missed the mark this Saturday. The Zebras failed to win on the lawn of Ostend (0-0), 17th, and saw the top 8 move away eight days from the end of the Belgian championship.
“I am very disappointed with what we offered offensively. The positive point is that we kept the zero. I think my group has the potential to grab the top 8 but we didn’t deserve to win tonight“, told Happy Mazzu at the microphone ofEric Libois at the end of the meeting.
“To be a very good team, you have to have consistency and you have to be able to string together victories“, continued coach carolo.
If the Zebras are only 3 lengths from the Circle (8th but with one game less), Mazzu prefers to talk about maintaining rather than the Europe play-offs: “I’m talking about the maintenance objective because we’ve come a long way. It is a group which doubted, which doubts perhaps still. Changing the situation overnight is not easy. We are in an area that is not very comfortable, even if we are still 10 points ahead of Zulte Waregem, 8 games from the end. So there’s no point in lacking humility and talking about the top of the table when we haven’t covered the bottom yet.“.
Next Sunday, Sporting de Charleroi will host Saint-Trond on the occasion of the 27th day of the Pro League.
