Warnings which did not carry, it seems with a recovery in the form of a blow to the head with the opening of the score by Destrain in the 48th. “We had to change our plans by moving further forward“, recognized the Namur coach, David Vandenbroeck.
Despite opportunities from Guérin or Detienne, the Namurois were unable to increase the pace sufficiently to worry the Sang et Or rearguard. Until this famous money time when Kabeya and Napoleone delivered the Namurois.
“This rewarded our hard work over the past few weeks. Until now, bad luck had pursued us a little“, underlined the first named. “This evening (Editor’s note: read Saturday), we have conjured fate on many thingsconfirmed David Vandenbroeck. Statistics are meant to be contradicted and we were keen to confirm our renewed form even though I admit it, Tournai played better than us. We were close to making it through. I am proud of my players who showed a lot of character“. And signed some firsts like two consecutive successes or even, being the first to overcome the Tournaisiens in their lair of the Luc Varenne stadium.
