Standard carried out the good operation of the weekend, defeating Sint-Truiden (1-2). A success which allows the Liégeois to return to just one length of the top 6.
If the Rouches were smiling at the end of the match… Everything had started badly. After 60 seconds Standard has already conceded a goal. On a long air balloon, Fossey completely missed. He sent the ball to Dierckx who involuntarily pushed him back towards Ogawa. The Japanese striker from Sint-Truiden deceived very easily Henquinet to give the advantage to the Trudonnaires.
Despite this catastrophic start, Standard managed to turn things around to win 1-2. This is the first time that Ivan Leko’s men have managed to string together two victories in a row this season. It is also the first time that they have managed to win after being behind.
-Standard, which is only one unit away from the top 6, will play a very important match against Dender next Sunday.
