In group B we get a duel between Cercle Brugge and Union. The home team will look for rehab after the heavy defeat against the neighbors from Waregem. Union lost a first time and hopes to stay in the lead of the first place.
Cercle Bruges:
With 77 goals against in 36 league matches, Cercle Brugge has the worst defense of the teams from 1A after the pan battle in the Rainbow Stadium. Zulte Waregem swallowed 73 hits. Cercle Brugge could dream of a group win in play-off 2 in advance, given the gap with Kortrijk and the fact that Union does not hold a European license. However, it became nothing at all. On Thursday trainer Laurent Guyot was thanked for his proven services.
The Association had shown ambition, but it was not really noticeable on the field. And so the Essevee attack line was able to show what they could do. All in all, it produced a beautiful spectacle, in which it was always a matter of looking at the VAR, at penalties and at goals. We finally got eight on our sandwich. Cercle Brugge received two as a gift because the defense of Zulte Waregem seemed to fall asleep a few times, otherwise the home team was lord and master.
“This rattle is inexplicable, with six defensive players between the lines and the experienced rotten Benjamin Delacourt, Jeremy Taravel and Benjamin Lambot,” Guyot bit the lip. “Whether I feel pressure on my position? The goal was conservation. That has been achieved. My contract runs for another year, with an option for an additional year, by the way. ”

In the first match, Union had celebrated the victory by taking a challenging photo pose after concluding. Something they had not forgotten at Waasland-Beveren.
After a first shot from Waasland-Beveren, Union took over the command. It was Waasland-Beveren who scored first and set off a crazy ten minutes. The break broke the flow of the two teams. In the urge forwards the troops of Adnan Custovic gave away space and the visitors made good use of it. Union nevertheless gave the lead away.
“We are certainly satisfied. We should not approach it in a negative way. This is not very bad. It was a good match. “, Coach Luka Elsner. However, after an hour of football, a new Brussels victory seemed to be coming after Faïz Selemani’s 1-2. However, the tide was still turning. “They were under pressure, but everything turned in the right direction for them. It is also the great thing about play-off 2 that this is possible. These are difficult matches, but my players give everything. ”
