De Meyer hails STVV fans after European night at Stayen

After STVV’s European match at Stayen, coach Frédéric De Meyer said the atmosphere created by the Truiense supporters was as impressive as the performance on the pitch, and he delivered a clear message of gratitude to the fans throughout the evening.

The trainer was at least equally impressed by what happened on the tribunes and did not spare his praise for the Truiense crowd. He described the night as a true Europese avond for the club. He told the media, “I am very happy with the fantastic atmosphere that was there,” adding that the supporters were truly of European level, sang loudly and pushed the team forward.

Volgens De Meyer, the backing was not just background ambience; he felt his players drew real extra energy from it. He said, “We really felt we were playing with twelve men,” highlighting how vital the fan support was for the squad.

De Meyer concluded with a clear message to the fans: “I can only congratulate them. Really, thank you.” The appreciation of the supporters therefore did not go unnoticed.
