Union Saint-Gilloise coach highlights Lookman threat ahead of Atalanta clash

Union Saint-Gilloise head coach David Hubert has highlighted Atalanta’s style of play ahead of their crucial UEFA Champions League clash.

The Belgium Pro League leaders will welcome La Dea to the Lotto Park on Wednesday night as they eye a victory that could give them a chance of qualifying for the playoffs.

Speaking ahead of the clash, Hubert touched on the playing style of Nigeria’s Ademola Lookman and his striking partner, Charles De Ketelaere.

However, he added that his side will not focus solely on the duo as they look to exploit their opponents’ weaknesses in a bid to secure all three points.

“Lookman moves between the lines, De Ketelaere creates play, provides depth, and is intelligent. But we don’t play only against them.

“For us, winning is our last chance, and against Atalanta, who have some weaknesses to exploit, we want to do so.

“We need to not rush and stick to our game plan, adapting to an opponent who plays a lot down the wings and is very attacking.”
