Another beautiful day of football at Nossegem and the Men in green stepped up on the pitch looking forward to stop the losing streak. On a different formation, we entered with a Neil False 9, ready to make a connection with midfield populated with quality. Trying to keep the pace high, and overcoming some bad passes, the seconds managed to make some well built plays, switching flanks and making sure to use options in the middle. In the first half wicked foot Nick managed a nice banana shot in the goal, which was stopped by the goalkeeper, and Jouke, that shot it over the bar. Following that, we continue our pressure and got two more chances on the two different posts, from our different wingers, Benji and Gabi. Second half came with a different attitude and saw Ewan and Luis coming in, establishing the team to the typical 443. We got bolder and with that came the mistakes, two missed passes called Max to the game who replied present when tested. We kept in the game, getting the ball in the box, with chances from Jouke, Luis and Ewan not getting the deserved goal for the more handsome men on the pitch. Heads down at the final whistle 0-0, which shows we don’t settle for draws. Good things are coming and we are hungry. MOTM goes to the man with the beautiful but cheeks:
