Jayson Papeau, statements after Rapid – Unirea Slobozia 4-1. “If I had scored, I don't know what would have happened afterwards. Maybe we were losing 1-10, maybe we were winning 3-0”
“It was bad, I feel bad, because when you lose, you can't feel any other way. It was good to come back here and to be applauded. I have all the respect for the fans. But I can't be happy for myself and my club because we lost. It would be disrespectful to the Union. I can't be happy, especially since I lost.
Rapid is one of the best teams in the Superliga. I couldn't say anything bad about this team. They played very well. If we played them again and they played the same way, we would lose again. They knew how to play, how to move on the field, they were way above us.
Even though we lost the match, I hope the next one will be different. This is football. If you make a mistake with really good teams like that, they punish you. It's about mentality. I had that opportunity. But I don't think he missed Rotund, Aioani had a very good parade.
If I signed up, I don't know what would have happened afterwards. Maybe we were losing 1-10, maybe we were winning 3-0. It happens in football when you don't score from the chances you create.
I didn't succeed today and that's why I lost. We didn't capitalize on the chances. We have to play as a team. I didn't communicate enough. We need to pass each other positive energy, positive information and focus more.
Especially in such matches, if we don't talk, we don't communicate, it's very difficult to progress. We have good players, we have to trust ourselves and we will do good things, we will play differently,” said Papeau, on Prima Sport 1.
