L. Elsner: “You have to put yourself in the shoes of the people who come to the stadium. We have to give back a little cheerfulness and pride to our supporters. They were there from the first minute to encourage us, that’s what I remember.”
A. Bodart : “We knew that people were going to react, we have been talking to them for weeks. They have been very, very patient in recent weeks, even after the defeat in Ghent, they were still there. But when it goes too far, it drives you crazy if I can tell. But we weren’t afraid. There was so much rage inside. The ideas were a little muddled. After the game, someone told me I was crazy to take the smoke bombs myself, that it could potentially explode in my hands. I didn’t calculate it. “
J. Kayembe: “I felt that the atmosphere was getting more and more heated, but I was never afraid. The Liège supporters turned against their team and it was easier for us.”
S. Nicholson : “I was never afraid. We know the passion that reigns here, but I did not feel in danger.“
E. Still : “We had talked before the game about the distractions in this kind of meeting. This interruption was just one more.”
