Move along, there’s nothing to see! That’s pretty much the summary of a first period which didn’t delight anyone in the stands. The only highlight was at the half-hour mark when Benaets thought to open the scoring but his goal was canceled for an offside position. “I still can’t understand why the linesman raised his flag”Frank Defays reacted hotly. However, Mr. Paye was right to raise his flag since on Benaets’ shot, Okumu deflected the ball slightly. However, he was behind Moriconi and only one player from Rochefort covered him where two would have been needed.
“I heard it crack”
Returning from the locker room, the two teams showed less technical waste. If the young Carolos point their noses at the window with in particular a recovery of Stulic’s header deflected at the last moment for a corner, it is Rochefort who creates the best opportunities. Libert crosses his shot too much while Azevedo sees his attempt lick Closset’s post. Sporting B reacts in particular through Stulic. The Serbian striker found himself face-to-face with Moriconi but catapulted the ball out of bounds when it should have been at least on target. Despite other Carolos opportunities, the score does not change. “We had good periods at timesestime Frank Defays. However, we showed too much waste and bad choices in the last move.”
On the Rochefortois side, Jeffrey Rentmeister was quite satisfied with the sharing: “It will nevertheless be a good point if we manage to capitalize on it next week by winning at home against Namur. It’s a great Carolo team despite their youth.” But what is especially worrying in Rochefort is the state of the knee of scorer Mathieu Cornet, who left injured just before the break. “His knee has doubled in size. We are not going to make too hasty predictions but it is not reassuring“, added his coach. This Sunday, the scorer didn’t know much more. The knee is still very swollen, it will be fixed after an MRI. “I hope it’s not the Crusadersclarified Mathieu. I heard a crack, I’m not very optimistic…”
