Today Anderlecht will play against Lyon again after the 5-1 loss in Lyon. “We have to show that the result in Lyon was exaggerated,” says manager Herman Van Holsbeeck to Sporza.

"We have to try and win and prove that the loss wasn’t deserved. Also for the fans we have to do our best. As a sportsman you always have to believe in the qualification, but we know that now it’s almost impossible.”

"The biggest disappointment in Lyon was that after 5 minutes you could already see we didn’t have a chance against such a competitor. It’s going to be hard to prove ourselves on such a high level. Lyon played so much faster and then a lot of our players get into trouble,” the manager concluded.

Van Holsbeeck hopes Anderlecht will show something tonight. “I count on their sense of honour, like two seasons ago against Bayern.”
