Pilchard 6 He did not often know how to enjoy himself offensively. At times, he even struggled against two direct opponents in the first half hour.
Simic 6 A perfect and yet not easy header to open the scoring. Tough in duels but his positional play is far from perfect and his lack of speed is a problem.
Loop 6 He played with fire with his intervention on Eckert Ayensa in the 27th minute. Start of the second half with two lousy retreat passes for Coosemans, but he ended the match with a nice assist from Dreyer.
N’Diaye 6.5 Preferred over Augustinsson, he did not have the same legs as Thursday in San Sebastian but he was still there.
Zipper 6 He took advantage of Dendoncker’s illness to stay in the team. A few passes that could have been decisive.
Leoni 5,5 He too rarely found the solution when he recovered the ball in front of his own rectangle. A little better after rest.
Stroeykens 8 A very nice technical gesture before serving Dolberg, who shot Epolo. Physically, he was still the strongest on the team, despite his fast-paced match at Real Sociedad. It was again he who – with a great effort – was the basis of the 3-0 finally canceled. Became the boss of the team.
Degreef 6,5 Highly acclaimed, he was the author of the first good action which led to the 1-0 corner. He showed some good things, we feel that he has a lot of room for improvement.
Verschaeren 6 A good cross towards Simic at 1-0. For the rest a few empty passages, until he scored the canceled 3-0, followed by a long slalom and a half-volley.
Dolberg 6,5 His shot at 2-0 was powerful and floating but too axial, probably the reason why he did not celebrate his goal. Its little bridge over Hautekiet was nevertheless formidable. He also thought he had given Verschaeren 3-0, in vain.
Fix 6,5 Yet half-ill, he made a decent start to the game.
Hubert 7 He once again showed audacity by preferring the young Degreef and N’Diaye to Dreyer and Augustinsson.
