Hubert: “It's still the Clasico”

In the upcoming Clasico in Sclessin, Anderlecht has the chance to definitively qualify for the Champions Playoffs.

Uninspiring Anderlecht loses to Union

Uninspiring Anderlecht loses to Union

Anderlecht lost once more to Union. An efficient Union won quite easily with 0-2 and just like in the matches against Genk and Club Bruges, Anderlecht couldn't make a fist anymore after the 0-1 before half-time. Even though Anderlecht missed a number of important pawns tonight, it becomes clear that it will be extremely difficult to finish in the top-3 this season. Read more »

Leoni: “Sights set on next games”

 Theo Leoni also expressed his disappointment about missing the European qualification. He referred especially to the failures against Plzen and Hoffenheim. “We failed in those two games, although against Fenerbahçe we showed a strong mentality. We fell behind quickly but the interruption (due to an incident with the fans, ed.) provided an opportunity to adjust tactics. The players were instructed to shoot more on goal and pass the ball faster.” Read more »

No Dolberg against Union either?

No Dolberg against Union either?

Earlier we heard that Dolberg's condition was mainly a mental issue and that his injury cannot be made worse by playing. Coach Hubert, however, seemed to hint otherwise at yesterday's press conference ahead of tonight's match against Fenerbahçe. Read more »
