interactions. ‘It’s a sad day’: Sels reflects on Van Damme-Martínez: ‘The only point of improvement is that we had to score more’ | Red Devils

Matz Sells was happy with his clean sheet, but his thoughts were mainly with Miguel van Dam: “Today is a sad day. My thoughts are with Miguel van Dam. I played for him today.”

Siby van der Heyden can look back with relief on his debut for the Red Devils: “I tried to play my game and give myself 100 percent. From the first minute to the last minute. I think that worked out well. Before the match, colleagues said: “Enjoy out, Siebe.” And whether you enjoyed it.”

At the press conference, the debutante was faced with a dilemma: “A champion with the Federation or in the European Championship? I want both, and I will not comment on this. “

“I am satisfied with many aspects of this performance. We played against a country in a very different style. The only point of improvement is that we should have scored more,” said the national team coach Martinez.

“I am happy with the goal. About the match, Hans Vanaken said at the press conference. “It remains to be seen before the World Cup. It is up to us to seize the opportunities. But I think this period went well.” He calmly nodded at 1-0. “One of my strengths,” he said of the title. “Especially if I can blow.”

Vanaken received applause for his goal at Lotto Park. “I would love to score here. It’s nice to get the applause. But today we are here for Belgium, not for Brugge or Anderlecht or whatever. It was great to have Belgium supported.”
