A smile was hard to find in the Guldenspoorstadion, just after half past ten on Friday evening. KV Kortrijk had just received a major blow in the 88th minute. The better team but lost on counter-attack to relegation competitor Westerlo. Scoring remains the problem at Kortrijk: 12 goals in 17 games. Avoiding the play-downs seems to be difficult.
Afterwards, the supporters reacted remarkably mildly but also somewhat resigned to the situation: “You can’t be angry with those players because they are doing their best. But I have the feeling that there is no more option now.”
“I don’t know if there is a lot of money, but it will be necessary to buy something more in the winter mercado. So Tan, if he looks,… it is really necessary to buy something more.”
