After fourteen days, KV Kortrijk has the same number of points as last season and is in penultimate place in the standings. A few months ago, the Kerels made a crazy climb to escape the descent. What about this time?
“We deserved more in my opinion. We had chances and we played really well. We could have scored twice and dominated in the second half, but that’s football,” Joao Silva said after the defeat Courtraisians against Antwerp.
A dangerous rescue mission again
“I wish I could explain why we always act too late, but this time we showed that we know how to play football. We have to be proud, even if we don’t bring home points. We have to keep working hard.”
KV Kortrijk, after fourteen days, has the same number of points as last season at the same time (14) and is only in penultimate place in the standings. A scenario similar to that of last season, which saw the Kerels escape in the final moments of the season. However, the differences are very small with secure places. “I am not afraid that we will have to fight until the end, because we could have been much higher with a victory.”
Some reinforcements in January
“We should have seized the opportunity, but the rankings are strange at the moment. We want to get out of the bottom of the table as quickly as possible,” coach Alexandersson also stressed.
“Otherwise it will come down to a fight to the finish once again and I will need a cardiologist. We now need to take as many points as possible before the New Year. In January we need to recruit one or two additional players with a different profile.”
