Assistant trainer Eric Van Meir gave a short reaction to Lierse.com after the 0-16 win at Pulle.Van Meir: “The score did indeed run up, but hats off to the Pulle players, who hadn’t trained a lot yet, but carried on playing to the end. From our players it was mainly about showing willingness.
For some of them it was their debut in front of our supporters, and that’s gone very well. We shouldn’t draw too many conclusions from this match, this was just a hard training. A number of players didn’t play in their usual positions, but the purpose was to let all available 18 players play a minimum of 45 minutes. We’ve shown both at a physical level with the strong training sessions, and on a technical level with the newcomers, that we’ve seriously progressed.”
