Reactions after Anderlecht - Beveren

Mbark Boussoufa scored three goals and thus played a big role in this crushing victory. "It's been since I was a mere youth that I won a match with such a score," told the Moroccan international.


"With all respect for Beveren, but they weren't up to par. We created a lot of chances and didn't waste them."

The midfielder is already looking ahead at wednesday's cup match against Standard. "We played as a collective and scoring eight goals gives us a lot of confidence. Although there isn't a lot of time to enjoy this victory. A tough game against Standard is waiting for us."

Jelle Van Damme: "This is fantastic, even though it's 'merely' Beveren. This shows that we're in form. Genk needs a lot more energy to win their games. The difference between our squads becomes bigger."

Olivier Deschacht remained sober in his analysis. "This 8-1 victory won't give us a psychological advantage. The next couple of matches are too important to start overestimating ourselves. The game against Mons will be decisive, I think."
