Seraing was forced to impose himself to continue to believe in direct maintenance, but the Steelworkers were poorly paid compared to the efforts made this weekend. This draw in Ostend means that the resident of Pairay is officially play-off.
“I think back to the times we didn’t get a penalty”
“The best team didn’t win on Saturday night. We played the game we had to play. We created chances and scored twice, and we didn’t give much, but we conceded a penalty at the end. I’m not going to contest this penalty, but I think back to the times when we didn’t get a penalty, like once morest STVV and Antwerp… So of course you feel frustrated,” said Jean-Louis Garcia at the microphone of Eleven Sports.
“It will be very difficult for the RWDM to prevent us from extending our stay in D1A”
Seraing will face Genk at home on the last day of the championship before the play-offs once morest RWDM (April 23 and 30). “But I told my players that we are in a great dynamic. Now we will try to finish well once morest Genk and then prepare for the double confrontation once morest RWDM. It will be very difficult for them to prevent us from extending our stay in D1A.”
