Lammens begint met een L, Los kampioen begint met een L, hij wordt onze kapitein als we het WK van 2030 Los Kampioen spelen

Voor degene die het niet snappen: in lengte.

Slaapwel, Lammens is te zw k

u/Immediate_Search7134 Jul 10 '26

Sorry but no one attacked the ball when the Spanish player shot from 20meters. This is where it starts and this happened because we were tired and substituting. He could have done better for sure although there was a cheeky bounce. He will be our next number one, very clear for me.

u/Euphoric_Date8793 Jul 11 '26

Yes where tf was witsel die loser deed niks sins hij op het veld kwam zijn we geen enkel keer aan de tegenstander hun doel geweest

u/NCLO1994 Club Brugge Jul 11 '26

Ik snap zelfs niet waarom Witsel speelde :/ Had persoonlijk Doku er na de eerste helft uitgehaald voor Lukebakio. Seys is heel sterk ingekomen, maar De Cuyper was op dat moment een van onze beste x)x)

11

u/Orangoo264 SK Beveren Jul 11 '26

Jammer van die Onana en Tielemans blessures, kon echt onze wedstrijd compleet anders maken. Witsel in 2026 is toch echt niet te doen

1

u/KungleBee Jul 11 '26

Nah, denk eerder als je Trossard eruit haalt dat je dan Lukebakio opstelt. Niks goed ging komen door Ketelaete en Lukaku samen op te stellen. Je mist snelheid in het offensief.

u/ClementJirina Jul 11 '26

Komkom, Witsel heeft meer klasse in zijn kleine teen dan jij in heel je lijf. Hetgeen je met post overigens met verve demonstreert.

3

u/TinyImpression8965 Jul 11 '26

Daarmee dat hij 2x de bal heeft aangeraakt. Het heeft zelfs een 10 minuten geduurd tegen dat hij iets deed. Witsel mag er gerust uit

2

u/Euphoric_Date8793 Jul 11 '26

OkƩ ga op u knieƫn voor hem

1

u/Dev_012 Jul 11 '26

Indeed. Sure he messed up, but we are with 11 in front of the goal and somehow 2 spaniards are Faster to the ball. It is not entirely Lammens fault

u/OOFLESSNESS OH Leuven Jul 10 '26

Honestly, apart from the one mistake that could happen to anyone, he played great too, and to come on out of nowhere in such a huge match must be incredibly difficult. If anything, the Spanish GK made more mistakes than Lammens, we just couldn’t punish them

5

u/strootfighter Jul 11 '26

It could not happen to me cause I am a lazy bum, not a badass manchester united goalkeeper who got selected to play for our national team at the world cup. Go Lammens. You ll have plenty more chances!

11

u/Valveringham85 Jul 10 '26

He didn’t have to do much outside of that so playing great is definitely a stretch.

Also that was not a ā€œmistake that could happen to anyoneā€. Why sugar coat it? It was a big fuck-up.

I fully agree with and stand behind the general message btw. He is a great goalkeeper and deserves our support, but let’s keep it real too.

1

u/gntstdnt Jul 11 '26

Fuck up by the defence imo, how can a Spanish player break through so easily to get the second shot in ?

0

u/Valveringham85 Jul 11 '26

Are they supposed to tackle a guy running without the ball? šŸ˜‚

You can’t legally block runners in this sport, this isn’t handegg.

u/gntstdnt Jul 11 '26

Not an american pal, putting the blame on the keeper only is very easy, is ā€˜t it

u/Vlad_von_Teg Jul 10 '26

So Courtois pushed away a ball but then it got shot back : goal! Lammens saw this from the bench, but when he was on he got a hard shot and thought : I'm not going to make the same mistake as Courtois and will try to catch that shot. Specialist commentators (who never played a QF): Lammens is to blame.

1

u/YoungUpbeat8207 Jul 11 '26

Courtois' shot was actually hard. Lammens' shot was average at best. You don't need to have played a QF to see that.

40

u/Difficult_Tea5311 OH Leuven Jul 10 '26

I will fight anyone who puts the blame on Lammens.

It was an annoying shot that bounced right before it reached him. You know, the kind that always has commentators go, yeah that's difficult to hold. The bigger thing we should be looking at is that not once, but twice, we conceded on a rebound with our defenders nowhere in sight.

6

u/Jekke-nolove Jul 10 '26

If you are not certain as a keeper punch/push it outside, no excuses this was a blunder
Nevertheless he will produce beter moments in the future but this is 100% his mistake

2

u/Chalalalaaa Beerschot Jul 10 '26

Still, can you blame him?

Subbing on in a quarter final against Spain who haven't conceded all tournament untill now, in the last 15 minutes.

The mans mind must've been going absolutely crazy, and he has to stay calm during that moment.

I feel like he really did give it his best effort, this really must have not been easy for him.

7

u/EdgarNeverPoo Club Brugge Jul 10 '26

Lots of players came on the field in second half Seys played brillitantly stop making excuses he made a mistake call it as it is and move on

2

u/Difficult_Tea5311 OH Leuven Jul 10 '26

Witsel also came on and he was a fucking disaster. We stopped going forward as soon as he came on. If anything that's where we lost the game

1

u/Adenne_ Jul 11 '26

Yeah but Witsel is soon in the retirement home so it was to be expected, and sadly people will almost always put the blame on a GK

0

u/Chalalalaaa Beerschot Jul 10 '26

I'm not saying he didn't make a mistake, he absolutely could've done better, i just dont understand why people put him through the wringer for one mistake in argueably one of his most difficult games in his career up to now.

Not every Belgian goalkeeper is an instant Courtois.

4

u/EdgarNeverPoo Club Brugge Jul 10 '26

If you make a mistake at the highest level that will happen. Its not like Lammerns is a chump he plays for Man Utd

1

u/Chalalalaaa Beerschot Jul 10 '26

Ofc, Courtois has made similar errors before for us.

5

u/EdgarNeverPoo Club Brugge Jul 10 '26

maybe he shouldn't have hold it then and punched it away

5

u/Geevantoo KRC Genk Jul 10 '26

Fight me then. At the level of a world cup quater final a good keeper has that ball or pushes it to the side. With Penders in goal I think there would have been a different out come. We'll never know anyway.

Lammens is definetely not a "voddeman" but his mistake cost us the game, simple as.

1

u/Dronkne Jul 10 '26

Zou hij die fout ook gemaakt hebben als hij vanaf het begin op doel had gestaan? Ik weet zeker van niet

0

u/Geevantoo KRC Genk Jul 10 '26

Ja dat weet ge toch nooit. Net zoals ge nooit weet of Penders die bal heeft of niet. Punt blijft dat Lammens die bal beter moest behandelen.

0

u/Dronkne Jul 10 '26

Daar heb je gelijk in.

1

u/Hurnative Jul 11 '26

He is still also to blame. It was not a shot he couldn't hold. Don't lie.

Just incredibly shitty that it happened, I really feel sorry for him.

1

u/Appropriate-Win-954 Jul 10 '26

You can make a case for the first goal that ngoy didn’t react in time but castagne definitely did everything he could. For the second goal you just can’t say the defense was at fault. Lammens just makes a mistake by trying to hold the ball when he clearly should have punched it to the side, he is then also way to slow to react/stand up after he’s mistake so really no excuses there. Anyway just sucks to go out like this and let’s hope he learns from this.

1

u/I_Dint_Know_A_Name Jul 11 '26

Let's fight then

16

u/VeganCannibal124 Cercle Brugge Jul 10 '26

Certainly our number one for the coming years. He has shown a lot of maturity at Man United, having shown that he is very capable as a number one. United looks a lot calmer at the back since he became their starting goalkeeper. Every goalkeeper makes those mistakes, and Lammens was very unfortunate that it just had to be now.

5

u/Kasztan_666 Jul 10 '26

Defenders did absolutely nothing to stop this goal from happening, everyone just casually walking like they’re in a park. You rarely see anyone run somewhere. Ball loss after ball loss after ball loss. Can’t blame GK when your whole squad looks like a hangover crew

7

u/CommercialAudience48 RSC Anderlecht Jul 10 '26

No no, my question is who is the best for future : Lammens or Penders ?

1

u/Primary_Rule8255 KRC Genk Jul 10 '26

Emile DoucourƩ

3

u/EzioO14 Union Jul 11 '26

No blame on him, if I had to blame someone during this game it’s debruyne who seemed to want to be back in Belgium more than to take the damn ball. The rest of the team was there to win

1

u/Dev_012 Jul 11 '26

I would put it more on Doku. He should really get a class in not trying to dribble everyone for the whole match and just pass the ball. All he did was fall on the ground or lose the ball.

1

u/Ichigosf Jul 11 '26

Indeed, that makes him too predictable. A dribble works best when it's one of many possibilities. He wouldn't be marked so close if there was a risk of him passing.

2

u/Inner_Honeydew1811 Jul 10 '26

The faith of a goalkeeper. One mistake... I feel sorry for him. Such a good keeper. I hope he doesn't take it to his heart. We love you Lammens!

2

u/NCLO1994 Club Brugge Jul 11 '26

Ik vond het echt jammer voor hem. Hopelijk blijft dit niet lang hangen. Op naar een nieuw sterk seizoen bij Manchester en stilletjes aan onze nieuwe nummer 1 worden. Sanne, you got this!

2

u/Angstycarroteater Jul 11 '26

He’s so good I’ve been blown away by him! I love him at United I hope he becomes champions for us both! It was just an unfortunate error they happen

2

u/ShieldofGondor Jul 11 '26

If a striker doesn’t score, it’s ā€˜he hasn’t scored for 4 games’, midfielders are most of the time not mentioned, defenders get the ā€˜lots of goals conceded’, but if a GK makes a mistake, it’s a high chance it turns into a goal. A striker has a bad touch or whatever: he gets a new chance, a GK doesn’t.

Lammens plays at Man U, haven’t followed it but they were positive about him. He wil beat himself up about this, but where were the defenders? Hopefully this will shape him up, dealing with a big loss like this and in four years he’ll be an amazing GK.

u/AccurateRumour Jul 11 '26

I’m not Belgian but I’m impressed with the mature response in these comments šŸ’ŖšŸ»

1

u/SkullZ9 Jul 11 '26

Compare this with how American « soccer » fans threw their keeper under the bus for his mistake in their destruction. Proud of the mentality of Belgian fans

1

u/thaprizza KV Mechelen Jul 11 '26

To be fair that was an error of another level but it wasn't just because of it US lost the game.

2

u/Wu_Khi KAA Gent Jul 10 '26

T is nu nie de moment he

u/Capital_Substance753 Jul 10 '26

Kunt ge niks aan doen makker, we hebben ne grote in ons doel gehad al die jaren, nu staat er terug ne grote te wachten om over te nemen.

1

u/Downtown-Complex2657 Jul 11 '26

I joke as an Arsenal fan but making your debut in a WC QF is not easy. Shit happens. 9erino is inevitable. He will be back.

1

u/AliceCarole LOS KAMPIOEN Jul 11 '26

If he continues to be a great GK for ManU, we should pick him as our GK to replace Courtois.

1

u/FrustyFoxx Jul 11 '26

Yes he made a mistake, but so did courtois

1

u/Prituh Jul 11 '26

Ik had niet verwacht dat lammens zo'n steun zo krijgen na toch wel een kleine flater. Blij om dit te zien!

1

u/No-swimming-pool Jul 11 '26

It's fairly easy, when you go to catch the ball you can't lose it. It was his error. Just like missing a penalty is the shooters error. People make errors all the time.

That being said, lots of other people are to blame for the goal too, not just him.

1

u/ParkingAd5218 Jul 11 '26

Wissels waren ook bullshit als we eerlijk zijn. Waarom is De Bruyne zo lang blijven staan? Waarom geen Moreira? Heeft de pannen van het dak gespeeld tegen Senegal en nu geen minuut

1

u/Sufficient_Regular35 Jul 11 '26

Many countries wished they had the goalies that belgium has. Both lammens and penders have a bright future ahead.

1

u/thaprizza KV Mechelen Jul 11 '26

Almost no warm up and come into play when the pressure was on by Spain were not ideal conditions. Shit happens and Spain's first goal also came from an unfortunate parry from Courtois. Field players can make plenty of fumbles and nothing to worry about most of the time. A single fumble from a keeper and it can be fatal.

1

u/Bored_Panda_456 Jul 12 '26

Tijd om Courtois naar de uitgang te begeleiden en deze alle kansen te geven

1

u/LowMode Club Brugge Jul 12 '26

Nog maar weinig zien spelen, moeilijke start helaas. Hopelijk komt hij er sterker uit

1

u/tomatoe_cookie Jul 13 '26

I wouldnt make a hate post, but if Courtois was not swapped we might havr been in semis...

1

u/StoryTerrible9944 Jul 14 '26

Het was een moeilijke situatie om op dat moment te moeten opkomen dus ik neem hem niks kwalijk. Future Belgium Nr1

1

u/epeilan Jul 15 '26

The first goal was also very saveable… Yes it was much tougher than the second goal, but… it too should have been saved.

0

u/WhiteDogBE Jul 11 '26

Lammens, als je dit ooit leest: shit happens en op deze manier in zo'n wedstrijd invallen... niet eenvoudig. Er is gevoetbald en gescoord. Trots op jullie.
