In the end, the RWDM will not even have had to play this weekend to confirm its place as a play-off at the end of the D1B season. Thanks to the defeat of Waasland-Beveren against Lierse, the RWDM is guaranteed to play a crucial play-off, as it is necessary to access D1A again.
“It’s a feeling of satisfaction,” said the Molenbeek coach Vincent Euvrard after the match – according to remarks taken up by The last hour. He knows that the hardest part remains to be done: “A first small victory, a first small success but I put the emphasis on small because we still have everything to look for. Nothing is certain.”
There are still three games to play – against Deinze, Waasland and Westerlo, and they are a long way from having no stakes. “The best way to prepare for a final is to play every match thoroughly. You have to be ready to play matches under pressure because we will be under pressure for these two finals. Thinking of relief and deconcentration over the next three weeks would be a very big mistake.”
The play-off will be played on April 23 and 30.
