At kick-off, the fans then left their stands empty for 12 minutes. Only the banners “Mafia Out”, “Co-Mehdi has lasted long enough”, “You don’t deserve us” et “Resignation direction” garnished the T4. In the 12th minute, they returned to their seats continuing to chant against the management.
De Mil returned to his traditional system
After trying a 5-man defense at the Cercle, which he logically justified by “the qualities of the adversary”Rik De Mil went back to basics. The technician installed his men in his traditional 4-2-3-1. Returning from injury, Andreou resumed his place in the 11 base.
On the bench at Jan Breydel, Dragsnes and Bernier were again starters. Titraoui replaced Camara, who was suspended. And the Algerian midfielder came close to disaster in the 3rd minute with a tackle on the verge of exclusion.
Heymans as a symbol
Facing his training club, Heymans found the net again thanks to a good assist from Zorgan (67th). Thanks to his 7th goal of the season, the best Pro League player of the month of September gave Charleroi the 3 points. A victory that had eluded them since September 15 and the match against Beerschot (1-0). Thanks to this success, Charleroi leaves the red zone and climbs to 9th place before the Sunday matches.
Dabbagh booed, Stulic favorite of the public
If he did not have a bad match, Dabbagh was still imprecise in the zone of truth. The striker was booed by Mambourg when he came off 20 minutes from time for Stulic. The Serbian was cheered by the fans even though he missed three chances.
A complicated schedule after the international break
The Zebras had the good idea to win against Westerlo. After the international break, they will go to Genk before hosting Standard then moving to Antwerp and Leuven. And then Mazzù will return to Mambourg with Saint-Trond. And Sporting will end the calendar year with a trip to Kortrijk on Boxing Day.
