Perfectly organized, Longlier, who had decided to wait for Assenois relatively low, achieved a second success away from his bases. Diligent, concerned and serious for ninety minutes, the Longolards have just taken four points out of six against Messancy and Assenois. Ideal for regaining confidence and getting back into the race for laurels.
Longlier, who had a little scare at the end of the match when Ulweling injured his elbow and was unable to finish, came back to nine points behind Assenois before facing Ochamps and La Roche, two teams in the second half of painting. “But we have often played a roller coaster since the start of the seasonprécise Arnold Nkokolo. We have just gained a good dose of confidence and I think we are on the right path. If Longlier now holds its benchmark match? I don’t think so. As it was a derby, we put a bit of pressure on ourselves. We know this Assenois team a little, we knew that our opponent liked to take advantage of counterattacks to cause pain. So we decided to take them at their own game, while waiting for them. It was a match that was going to be decided on details and it worked out for us. Because Lukas Dufrasne, if he attempts this shot in training, nine times out of ten, it flies into the clouds. There, it ends in the top corner.”
