Loïc Lapoussin didn’t just make friends this weekend among the Cercle de Bruges supporters. The Union striker released some strong statements on the Bruges fans after the match. He apologizes…
Union Saint-Gilloise did not obtain the result they hoped for this weekend against Cercle. Sébastien Pocognoli’s men left Jan Breydel with a goalless score. A frustrating performance, obviously also for some players. After the meeting, Loïc Lapoussin made comments that made people cringe.
“It’s not easy to come and play in these conditions (a sparsely filled stadium). With all due respect to Cercle de Bruges. It doesn’t really make you want to play in these stadiums. When you play against the Club or the Circle, that has nothing to do with it,” the player explained on the microphone. DAZN after this Sunday’s meeting.
An original punishment
The Union SG reacted in an original way. Lapoussin was invited to write “Union – Circle” several times on a blackboard, in a setting reminiscent of The Simpsons. Everything was immortalized in a humorous video broadcast by the club.
The player apologized: “I would like to apologize to our friends at Cercle de Bruges and also to the Unionists for my statements about the stadium and the supporters after the match.” A way to turn the page, with a smile.
