Preview RWDM Brussels – Beerschot Men 08 Nov Matchday 13 is just around the corner. Tomorrow, Beerschot travels to the capital for the clash with RWDM Brussels. Captain Ryan Sanusi looks ahead. Last week, Beerschot suffered its first defeat of the season. 'The Kerels’ from Kortrijk won 1-2 at the Kiel. "We were certainly not the inferior team", Ryan begins. "But Kortrijk was simply more efficient in the box. The early goal after just four minutes obviously played in their favour. Then you know it's going to be difficult to come back against a strong block like Kortrijk. Still, we did everything we could, even after that second goal. That defeat has brought us even closer together as a group. We fought as one team until the end. Now we're putting that loss behind us and looking ahead. After a victory, we can't dwell on the euphoria for too long, but after a defeat, we shouldn't dwell on the sadness either", says our captain combatively.

Against Kortrijk, Beerschot conceded another goal from a set piece, a recurring problem this season. What does Ryan think is the reason for this? "I think it's a combination of several factors. Kortrijk's corner kick was excellently taken and well finished, you have to admit that. But we could defend a little more aggressively in such situations. Luck also plays a role, and we sometimes lack that a little. The most important thing is that we don't let it get to us, but learn from it. I am convinced that we will get even sharper."

Tomorrow, RWDM Brussels awaits. Frédéric Frans' team has had an inconsistent season so far and conceded a late equaliser against Jong Genk last weekend. "There will be two teams on the pitch looking to set things right", says Ryan. "That late goal was undoubtedly a blow for RWDM. They are playing at home again and want to show their fans something. We, in turn, want to show that we have resilience. With our fans as our thirteenth man behind us, I am confident that we can achieve a good result tomorrow."

Tomorrow at 4PM: RWDM Brussels - Beerschot.
