Man of the Match – Ivanovic – 8.5
Always good technically and in his movements, he assisted Fuseini in the 1-0. It was he who pushed Da Silva to score his own goal after a clever solo move before finally scoring his first goal with the Union. And come out to a standing ovation.
Death – 6.5
Apart from a free kick save at the very end of the match, he had absolutely nothing to do during this part with only foot clearances to negotiate.
Tools – 6.5
He did a very good defensive job, achieving several good ball coverages.
Burgess – 6
Although he had some approximations in his game, he won the majority of his aerial duels and was often well placed.
Mac Allister – 6
He was not often put in difficulty by the relatively weak attack of Kortrijk.
Vanhoutte – 6.5
Above all, he worked in the shadows without putting himself in the spotlight.
Faithful – 5.5
He had two big chances from the big rectangle, which he wasted by not hitting the target. At the hour mark, he saved a ball on the line.
Niang – 7
In his left lane, he started with very good intentions by doing a lot of defensive work. He continued his momentum without creating any big opportunities offensively.
Castro-Montes – 7
He was at the base of the opening score from his right side in which he held his own against the opponents.
Rasmussen – 6,5
He tried to play vertically to find his partners with one or two touches of the ball. He was solid in defensive duels.
Fuseini – 7
He opened the scoring by being in the right place in the small rectangle. He hurt the opponent with good acceleration.
Lazarus – 6
Coming on at the hour mark, he made some good defensive interventions without having the opportunity to be decisive offensively.
Terho – 6.5
Sadiki’s replacement assists on Ivanovic’s goal.
Pocognoli – 7
He trusted Fuseini and Niang who gave him back on the pitch. His changes brought freshness to the team.
