Brian Riemer Reflects on Clasement Jupiler Pro League After Draw

Brian Riemer Analyzes the Draw

After the match against Westerlo that ended in a 2-2 draw, Brian Riemer discussed the team's performance. 'I'm never happy with a draw at home, but I have to analyze the game,' he commented after the match. 'We started extremely well, but we conceded a silly first goal and didn't defend correctly. This led to a second goal from a set-piece.'

Performance Highlights

• Strong Start: The team played well during the early stages.
• Late Surge: Anderlecht pushed hard in the last 30 minutes and equalized.
• Defensive Concerns: Riemer pointed out mistakes leading to goals.

Riemer noted that the expected goals for Westerlo were nearly zero when excluding set-pieces. 'We were not sharp enough in front of their goal,' he added. 'Some key players need to capitalize on their chances.' The coach is optimistic as they maintain an unbeaten run.

Riemer's Take on New Signings

He praised the performances of new signings Leander Dendoncker and Samuel Edozie, highlighting their contributions to the game. 'Dendoncker brought something we were missing in midfield, while Edozie was sharp in his one-on-one situations.'

Injury Updates

Regarding Lucas Vazquez's injury, Riemer stated, 'He twisted his ankle, and we need to see how he feels before the next match.'
