Toby Alderweireld appeared in front of the Eleven/DAZN camera five minutes after the defeat to Club Brugge. The Antwerp defender and captain strongly criticized the referee.

We are not used to seeing Toby Alderweireld in such anger. “We played for our pride. We had everything under control, but then unfortunately we fell behind,” began Alderweireld’s analysis.

The former Red Devil then strongly criticized the arbitration. “They had a bad day. Look, I’m really sorry. I congratulate Club Brugge, but the referees played their part. Their level is really dramatic and it’s not just today.”

Alderweireld believes that the playoffs largely go to Antwerp. “Look, I’m here five minutes after the game and the emotions are still there.”

“Everything is whistled against us. Every decision is against us. Of course I also see it with my own eyes as an Antwerp player, but that’s just how we experience it.”

It does not mean that the less good performances will affect the final of the Belgian Cup, he promises. “Today was not a bad performance. If we got the second penalty, we would have got a draw here. Today was Antwerp. With the fans behind us. That makes me proud. And on Thursday we just aim to win the Kopp.”
