Standard de Liège showed nothing this Sunday evening during the Liège derby. Soft, rough and without desire, the Rouches fell against the promoted Seresian. “This defeat hurts, we didn’t expect to play this way. A match that was important for the fans, but also for us. Something was wrong today, but I don’t know how to explain it “, confided Laurent Henkinet at the end of the meeting. “Too much relaxation compared to being almost saved? No, you have to give everything and not let yourself go. We don’t have the right. However, we wanted to come back with better intentions after the break but it’s not was not the case. We were blocked by Seraing who was well in place. We thought we were on a good streak after Charleroi, but we fall back into our faults”, underlined the Liège goalkeeper.
The red twelfth man expressed his displeasure during the meeting by whistling and celebrating Seraing’s passes. “It’s far from pleasant, especially since we weren’t able to react. The end of the season is complicated for us, we have to remobilise. Seraing’s historic victory? It also hurts because we knew that “They had never beaten Standard. This is the year where everything does not go as we want…”, concluded Henkinet.
