Standard hit hard in the race for the top 6. The Liégeois turned the tide in Sint-Truiden to win 1-2 in an intense match. This match could be a key moment of the season Rouches.
Ivan Leko was proud of his colors, he said it on the microphone of the Pro League: “We had a very good match despite a complicated start to the match. We had a lot of bad luck with the first goal. To come back and win is something huge for us. To achieve this without our captain, with many players absent, without Bodart, without Epolo is something incredible. Getting a 6 out of 6 is a superb performance. JI’m very proud of my team and the way we came back although we were lucky.
The Standard coach was over the moon because he knows that the club has come a long way: “The goal was to save the club, to do everything to stay in the first division. This is why I am so proud today of my players and the staff, seeing where we are in the standings today.”
-There is therefore no question of releasing the pressure for Ivan Leko who wants to continue his momentum: “The priority now is to prepare for next Sunday’s match against Dender. This home match will be very important, it will be a huge match not to be missed. If we manage to win, we will definitely forget the scenario of relegation and playoffs 3. If we win we could be the big surprise of playoffs 1“.
