Antwerp’s defeat to Kortrijk was their first in the league under new manager Mark Van Bommel. Back in September, Van Bommel stated when asked about the unbeaten start that “We’re not going to relax now, that’s not in this team. We will still experience situations in which we will lose. Then we have to continue on the same path and with the same way of playing as where we started”.
