Standard
Standard achieved a feat by winning 1-0 against Sevilla FC on Matchday 5 of Group J in the Europa League on Thursday night. The Liege can still believe in a qualification for the round of 32.
In the obligation to win to keep the hope of pbading the European winter, the Liege began the game in an offensive scheme with Mpoku, Carcela, Djenepo aligned to feed Renaud Emond. Despite possession of the ball largely to the advantage of the leader of the Spanish Liga, it was the Rouches who created the best opprtunités early game via a head of Emond (8th) and a shot from Carcela (15th).
On the other hand, Sevilla answered but Ben Yedder could not find the frame (21st) before Vazquez found the goal-angle of Ochoa (25th). Just minutes from rest, Standard lost Mpoku on injury and was replaced by Marin. Well in place, the Rouches started the second period as the first. Launched alone in front of Vaclik, Emond was out of control and the Sevillian porter easily grabbed the leather.
The men of Michel Preud'homme were finally rewarded for their efforts when Djenepo was cold-blooded to deceive Vaclik (62). Reduced to ten after the second yellow card of Sarabia (68th), Sevilla pushed to return, which offered spaces against Standard but Djenepo galvaudait two huge opportunities late in the game. Two failures of no consequence for the people of Liège who could exult at the final whistle.
In the standings of group J, Standard is third with 9 points, as much as Seville, second. Krasnodar remains at the top of the group with 12 points. Akhisarspor is eliminated with 0 points on the clock. On the sixth and final day, December 13, Standard will impose on Akhisarspor and hope at the same time a defeat or division of Seville against Krasnodar to qualify. A heavy defeat of the Russians in Spain combined with a large victory for the Liégeois in Turkey could also qualify the club of Liège.
