After a dramatic week, Union has regained its positive energy. Captain Teddy Teuma led his team with 2 goals. KV Kortrijk did not get further than the connecting goal.

  • Key moment: Teddy Teuma’s 2-0 at about the hour seemed to kill the game. Moments later, Union’s defense was a bit weak and the connecting goal was a fact. However, it was not more than that for KV Kortrijk.

  • Man of the match: Teddy Teuma was very present for Union with two goals. In addition to those goals, he regularly sprinkled magic in midfield. A gate, a pass in one time with the outside of the foot.

  • Remarkable: Union straight back after a week with six unanswered goals at KV Mechelen and Rangers. After four games, it already has seven points. Not a bad start to the season.

Teuma scores before and after the break

Six unanswered goals in two games, that’s what Union had in their backpack today. The goal was clear: with a victory the worries disappear.

Vanzeir got a new attacking partner next to him in Victor Boniface. But it was old acquaintance Teddy Teuma who could open the score from 11 meters after nine minutes. The penalty kick came after Loïc Lapoussin was knocked down just inside the big rectangle.

In the first half, Kortrijk was only able to enforce three more chances just before the end. With Gueye, Vandendriessche and Bruno, Belhocine brought extra attacking skills to the field after the break.

But Teddy Teuma wasn’t done yet and curled in wonderfully from the edge of the box.

On the other side, Union still had to do everything to block Bruno’s shot, so that Selemani could eventually score the connecting goal.

Teuma kicks the penalty perfectly out of reach of the Ilic.

Geraerts: “The most important thing today was fighting spirit.”

  • Karel Geraerts (Union): “Everyone is happy with the win. I also told the players before the game that you can only end the week by winning today in a good way. In football you can have group conversations and so on and so on, but all that matters is “The end of the day is the result, the victory. That’s what the players earned today. We didn’t finish the chances to finish the game earlier but I think we deserve three points today. The most important thing today was seeing fighting spirit again. We at Rangers mainly failed to play that game well, as we normally can, that was hard to accept as a coach and as a team.”
  • Karim Belhocine (Kortrijk): “It is not easy, you want to start the match in a good way. The opponent was strong but we are not strong enough in the duels, we do not give one hundred percent. Only at the end of the first half do we react and create The second half got better with a Kortrijk that wanted to come back from 2-0 but it’s important to play the same way as a group whether it’s 0-0, 1-0 or 2-0 and play without fear .”
  • Massimo Bruno (Kortrijk): “I think we had a little too much respect for this team. We let them play too much and had too little aggression in our game. After the break it was better and we created opportunities. It is important to start well to the season to have peace of mind and to be able to play football without pressure.
  • Sieben Van Der Heyden (Union): “It was very important to win today, we knew that in advance. After a very difficult week, we knew it was important today to be sharp from the first minute and we showed that. tired but we kept going We kept the three points at home today and that’s the most important thing Personally it was very difficult mentally also because of the mistake I made against Rangers I felt very guilty and I wanted to give something back for today myself and for the team.”
