And whether on the side of Pascal Jacquemin or Quentin Faymonville, no one understood this decision and made no secret of saying it before the meeting. “We don’t understand the referee’s decision. The two rectangles are very dangerous. It’s icy, concrete. It’s impossible to play football on a surface like that, it’s incomprehensible.”
Despite the disputes from both sides, the match started well and it was the visitors who took control of it by creating, in the second minute, a big opportunity via Pelenga who came up against Frère for the first time. The Houffal goalkeeper did it again twice in front of the same Pelenga and against the young Uselding who, in the meantime, had opened the scoring after a quarter of an hour. “My players did not return to their match, they were more concerned about the state of the pitch and were still complaining about the referee’s decision. Sart took advantage of this and fully deserved his advantage when returning to the locker room. Without Steven Frère’s saves it could have been 0-3 at halftime.analyzed the Houffal T1. After raising his voice at rest, Pascal Jacquemin saw a completely different face from these men who knew how to reverse the match via Brichet and who could even have taken cover on several occasions. Without consequence, however, for the Houffalois who will go to Vaux on Sunday for another derby. “We put in more desire, more aggression and we were able to raise the bar,” welcomed Pascal Jacquemin.
