Nine crosses, six corners

Van den Boomen registered nine crosses (two accurate) and six corners in Saturday's 0-0 draw versus Le Havre.

Analysis: Van den Boomen's nine crosses are somehow his season-low, meaning he has reached double digits in the category in each of his other appearances. A lot of the crosses are helped by the fact that he is Angers' primary corner taker, as he is averaging just under nine corner attempts. Nonetheless, van den Boomen has been an active playmaker, creating 11 chances for one assist across his four appearances this season.
