With only one intervention throughout the game, Simon Mignolet headed for the Mixed zone with a nearly clean outfit. “This fifth consecutive clean sheet is a nice stat, but it also goes to show that we are quietly making our way back to the level where we belong. I reckon our start to the game was exquisite, with an extra early goal to open the game, a bit like we did in Besiktas really. We need to keep playing like ths and keep working on the aspects in which our game can still improve. Particularly when it comes to scoring that second goal before the break, we need to be more industrious, as you can notice Standard were creeping back into the game as the minutes went by, even if it came without much danger. When that second game followed early in the second half, we played it out cleverly. That's when you notice that the group has taken some much needed steps. We need to continue along the road we have embarked on now, but again: it will take more efficiency when we want to start making things easier on ourselves.” (MV)
