After securing qualification for the next World Cup, the Belgian national football team is shifting its focus to the Jupiler Pro League, with the 11th day approaching. Sporting de Charleroi is set to travel to Liège to face Standard in a highly anticipated match.
Standard Liège, leading the championship, has become a formidable opponent. The Zebras of Charleroi are determined to secure a victory against Standard, aiming to avenge their nightmare from last season when they were dominated by the Liège team with a 6-1 defeat.
Francis N’Ganga, the Congolese defender for Charleroi, is eager to take revenge and emphasized the importance of flawless tactical organization to overcome Standard’s strengths. He stated, “We have already worked a little on this move last week in training… We know this team by heart anyway, with its very formidable attackers and its very technical midfield who likes to play in small spaces. She obviously has a lot of qualities but also some flaws that we will have to try to exploit. In any case, it will be necessary to display flawless tactical organization to hope to win anything. We know the importance of this Walloon derby for our supporters, to whom we owe a debt following last season’s 6-1. We have not forgotten anything about this match, and many players who participated in it are still there and want to get back together,” as declared by Francis N’Ganga to Sudpresse.
