The word "albeit" means "although" or "even though." Typically, it is used to introduce a contrasting idea. In this sentence, it indicates that the football coach had a sympathetic presence, even though he was also commanding; thus, two distinct sentiments are emphasised.

Hence, Option A is the correct choice.
