Brentford Keith Andrews has hailed his players as incredible following their 1-0 win over Aston Villa in the Match-Day 24 of the premier league, Softfootball reports.
The Bees lost 2-0 to Nottingham Forest at home last week. It followed Brentford’s 2-0 lost against Chelsea in Liam Rosenior’s premier league debut while Aston Villa were basking in the glory of the 3-2 victory over RB Salzburg in the Europa League Match-Day 8 fixture.
A very excited Keith Andrews, speaking in an interview after the match that was shared via Brentford’s official X handle, he said:
Whoever was on the pitch at any moment was so impressive. It was a performance that typified us. We did pretty well and it was a game of two halves. The first-half we were excellent until the sending off with the ball. We played with personally and could have created more opportunities.There is a solidity, there is a grit, personality and growth week-to-week and month-to-month. I like watching us.
Brentford finished the match with 10 men after Kevin Schade red and the manager used the opportunity to give his opinion. He said:
The red card did change the flow of the game, it never will change the resolve of the team because it is a collective in everything we do. Thiago being an example of how much you have to dig in. I didn’t see it, but I have watched it back and I have no complaints from that. Kev needs to learn from that and he really tested his teammates and he will have to take them out for a nice dinner.
