Monceau won without trembling against the Cinaciens who only had one shot on target in just over 90 minutes. And yet, the match could have changed at the hour mark when the Moncellois goalkeeper, Prévot, was sent off for coming out too decisively against Yoka with a penalty. It was a midfielder, Samouti, who then had to put on the gloves. He even repelled the penalty that followed even though Yoka was there to take the ball and send it into the ceiling of the Moncellois goals. The score was then 3-1 and Ciney tried to push to get back into the lead but without creating any real chances. In fact the Cinacian goal fell on the only shot on target from the RUW. Before the exclusion of his goalkeeper, Monceau had dominated his subject by scoring three goals. The first by Bil in the 20th minute, the second by Boumediane, who dribbled past the Ciney goalkeeper to open the goal, the third by Bouterbiat just after the break. Frustrated, the visitors ended the match at 9 following the exclusions of Gaziaux and Rosy.
“From the preparation to the match and even after the match, everything was just a sketch, said Michaël Desille, Ciney’s coach. We talk about absences but there are many other reasons for this defeat. Some people should review their priorities. I won’t say any more.” Michel Dufour, the RAS coach, was more talkative: “We were keen to win against Ciney, where we had been beaten at the end of a very tense match. My players showed me that they were well aware of what was at stake by dominating the opponent throughout. the meeting even if a match event could have called everything into question This victory is all the more precious, as I had promised it to Adrien Mura, our former president, who died this Thursday.
