Henok Teklab in a row with a teammate
It was not about football and everybody who saw it knows that. Two men who have to play together on Saturday said things at OH Leuven this week that will take longer than a week to unsay.
Match17 Oct 2026
A bad afternoon for OH Leuven against Sint-Truiden
1‑3 to Sint-Truiden, and no complaints worth printing. The performance asked for nothing more than it got.

A row about effort at OH Leuven
Somebody said out loud what several people thought about how hard another man trains, and Birger Verstraete was in the middle of it. The one dressing-room argument that is genuinely about football.
Player ratings19 Oct 2026
Ninety minutes of Thibaud Verlinden at his very best
Marked 8.00. Players have careers without a single afternoon like this in them, and he has just had one in front of everybody at OH Leuven.
The dugout19 Oct 2026
No hiding place for Birger Verstraete
“I pick players who do the work. All of it.” No name was spoken; every camera still turned to Birger Verstraete, and the manager let it.

Mousa Meunier: “No excuses”
“I could talk about decisions and I could talk about luck. I will not. We lost.” The manager, 1‑3, and a press conference that lasted four minutes.

Christopher Luhaka signs on for more
“Some decisions take a long time. This one took ten minutes, and most of that was finding a pen.” Christopher Luhaka and OH Leuven agree another 2 years.

When it matters, William Balikwisha plays
It is never announced and it is entirely visible: the biggest afternoons of the season keep containing him. A press box works this out long before anybody at the club confirms a word of it.

Christopher Luhaka is a square peg at OH Leuven
The system has changed and his position has not. A footballer can improve his form; he cannot improve the manager’s formation, and that is the whole of the problem.
