Kortrijk:
“If we want to look higher, we must first win at a top club,” Yves Vanderhaeghe had said in the run-up to his trip to the Little Owl. But no, it just won’t work. Barely twice in the last five years, KVK made a profit with a topper. In 2017 at Genk and Standard. But there is good news for Vanderhaeghe: almost all of them are still visiting the Golden Spurs Stadium in the back round. At Genk and Standard, Kortrijk led halfway through 0-1, at Ghent it was still 0-0, on Saturday KVK was only delayed in the 45th minute by a stupid penalty kick. With the upcoming trips to Club Brugge and Anderlecht ahead, Yves Vanderhaeghe knows where he stands.
KV Kortrijk played absolutely no bad game played against Antwerp. The first half was hardly in trouble, but a stupid penalty kick just before the break killed them. That penalty was the turning point. After the break the 2-0 quickly fell after a phenomenal long shot by Lamkel Zé. Kortrijk therefore loses the match in just ten minutes.
“In the second half we were too sloppy, members lost too much, missed realism. That is punished against top clubs, “says Vanderhaeghe. “We played a good first half, we had the most control over the game, we brought the best combinations, but then things went wrong.”
Eupen:
On Friday-evening, KAS Eupen and Anderlecht played a draw at Kehrweg (0-0). The Pandas are still waiting for their first home win, but did grab an important point. After Club Brugge (in Jan Breydel), Eupen has now also been able to restrain Anderlecht. Because of this tie, Eupen scored four out of six in the last two games.
Without the injured Chadli, Anderlecht had all the trouble in the world to get close to the Eupen goal. Only after half an hour did the first chance play together. Little improvement in the East Cantons after the break. Anderlecht claimed the ball, the visitors did not participate much. The visor of the Purple & White players was not properly adjusted, a few long shots disappeared after the stadium. The home team got a few shooting opportunities via Bautista, Nils Schouterden and Ebrahimi, but it was also just not the same for the Eupen players.
“It was a very tactical match and I have to congratulate Anderlecht on their good football. We started the competition well, but afterwards it became more difficult. Nevertheless, Anderlecht goalkeeper Hendrik Van Crombrugge had to make the most difficult saves. He pulled out a goal that could have been very important to us, “Benat San José explained. “In any case, a point is not a bad result against a club like Anderlecht,” said the Spanish coach of Eupen.
