Luka Elsner was obviously satisfied at the end of the meeting. “We are obviously happy given that it’s a breath of fresh air. Everything started on the right track and then we took a red card. But we were able to hold on with real team values and solidarity. All the players and even those on the bench, transmitted something collective and good. And this victory is deserved in this sense”, confided the T1 of the Rouches at the end of the meeting.
The people of Liège, reduced to ten at the start of the second period, resisted against Antwerpers ready to pick up the score during the few minutes of hesitation after the exit of Noë Dussenne. “We had a problem for ten minutes after the exclusion. There was a series of situations the time before we could make the change and come back to five behind. The red card? “We have to review the images. I’m told it’s slight but if it was confirmed by the VAR it means there was something. It ends well today and so much the better,” said Elsner.
