On the sixth match day the number one (shared with OHL) receives the number eight and also the last in the competition: Lokeren. More people are wondering how they got there. Nonchalance? Arrogance? Or simply not enough quality? In any case, there is no shortage of the latter at Westerlo, and certainly no surplus from that first!
Lokeren:
Lokeren played against Virton as it played in the Jupiler Pro League last season: lousy, without enthusiasm and above all without organization. The latter appears to be a bigger problem than expected. The boys on the field don’t communicate enough with each other, but sometimes they can’t do that at all. According to trainer Glen De Boeck, the central defenders do not speak French or English, there you are … There is an urgent need for a solution, because communication is the key to success, every football expert knows.
With a lean one in fifteen, experienced rot Jelle Van Damme knows that they have no choice but to put their hand in their own bosom. ‘I am angry, disappointed and disappointed. It’s simple, we’re in last place. You can discuss this for hours, but it will be justified in one way or another. ” A victory in the Daknam Stadium next matchday against Westerlo would do the tricolores great, but it will by no means be easy.
The Kemphanen show off at the top of the rankings with a handsome twelve out of fifteen. Last weekend they won perhaps the best victory, at home in ‘t Kuipke against archrival and fellow title candidate Beerschot. The 1-0 appeared relatively early in the game, after a penalty was called for a handball. Christian Brüls transposed this flawlessly. The 2-0 fell fairly easily in the second half of the foot of Lukas Van Eenoo, after an untouched low cross over the ground.
Bob Peeters was ready and clear after the game: that’s how we have to play, and not like Virton. With the same grinta, mindset and organization. Otherwise, the period title remains with a dream. ‘If we play in Virton like last week, where two or three people are not in class or think that we are already going to play for the period title, then we are just a very poor team. But we have again proved to Beerschot that we can win from everyone in our own way. ”
PREDICTION: Both teams to score / YES @ 1,70
