Belgian Media Offers Mixed Assessment of Leicester City’s Wout Faes Following 2-0 Defeat to France
Wout Faes, a defender for Leicester City, recently represented Belgium in a UEFA Nations League match against France, which resulted in a 2-0 defeat for the Belgian team. Faes played the entire 90 minutes of the game, and his performance received mixed reviews from the Belgian media.
RTBF Actus gave Faes a rating of five out of ten, stating that he was “solid in duels” and “interesting on the restart.” However, they also noted that he had a “complicated second half.” Nieuwsblad was slightly more positive, awarding Faes a score of seven out of ten and commenting that he “sent several good diagonals” and “kept his head above water.”
Faes’ performance was not the only aspect of the game that received attention. The Belgian media also praised the central defensive partnership between Faes and Caleb Okoli, which showed promise despite the team’s defeat.
Leicester City’s upcoming match against Crystal Palace will be a crucial test for Faes and his teammates. With only one point from three games so far this season, the team is under pressure to secure their first Premier League win. Faes will need to be at his best to help his team achieve this goal.
In other news, Jannik Vestergaard has spoken out about being dropped from the starting lineup for Leicester City’s recent defeat against Aston Villa. Vestergaard expressed his disappointment but also emphasized his commitment to the team and his desire to regain his place in the starting lineup.
Victor Kristiansen, another Leicester City player, has also shared his thoughts on his recent experiences with the team. Kristiansen has established himself as a regular starter for the team after being expected to leave earlier in the season. He has expressed his gratitude to Steve Cooper, the team’s manager, for giving him the opportunity to prove himself.
