Notts County head coach, Luke Williams, was pleased with his teamβs performance in their 3-1 victory over Accrington Stanley at Meadow Lane this past Saturday. The Magpies went top as a result of this victory, and Williams had nothing but praise for his team.
Williams praised his team for creating βreally good chancesβ and noted that Aiden Stone, the goalkeeper, got Man of the Match. βWe scored three goals, but the goalkeeper gets the Man of the Match, so that tells you that it was tough, and they created really good chances, and he made brilliant saves,β Williams said. He was impressed by the way his team was able to create opportunities and capitalise on them.
The head coach also appreciated the toughness of his players. βThatβs the thing that I loved about the performance because Iβm exhausted, but the players were able to be tough when they needed to be tough and that made me feel very, very happy,β he said. Williams recognised the effort and determination his players showed on the field, and how they were able to rise to the challenge.
Williams also acknowledged that there were some challenges during the game. βI thought we started well but even from the early stages, I think we scored, I donβt know, itβs early seven minutes? But inside those seven minutes, I think they flashed the ball across the box a couple of times, and it wasnβt so comfortable,β he said. Despite these early difficulties, Williams was proud of how his team responded.
Despite these challenges, Williams was proud of his teamβs ability to overcome them. βSo when we scored we needed to really show that we can understand the opposition. We can have a reaction, and we need to show that we can match that and then maybe we can go in one-nil up and then the other chance the game is different in the second half if you do that, but we didnβt. We became more passive after the goal, and then we suffered for that and so that was the main message at half-time and of course, the players are brilliant, so they do everything that they should do,β he said.
Williams emphasised how important it was for his team to understand their opposition and react accordingly. He praised his players for being able to adapt and overcome challenges during the game. The head coach also highlighted how his team was able to bounce back after becoming more passive after their first goal.
In their victory over Accrington Stanley, Williams expressed extreme satisfaction with his team's performance. He commended their ability to create chances, their resilience on the field, and their capacity to overcome challenges during the game.Β
This victory propelled the Magpies to the top of the table, and Williams eagerly anticipates what his team can achieve in future matches.
