In the end, we come to wonder if this white division (in 7 direct confrontations since 1986, Steaua / FCSB and Anderlecht are also perfectly equal in wins, shares, defeats and goal difference!) is a good deal given the circumstances, or must leave a slight aftertaste of regret compared to an end to the match where the Romanians were more cooked than the Brussels people and where “there was room“.
Given the period crossed by the Mauves, the first option seems the most realistic, even if with a more far-sighted referee (two blatant penalties forgotten, one on each side), things could have turned out differently (to wonder why the UEFA instituted VAR in the Champions and Europa League and not in the Conference… Without their video assistance crutch, the referees now seem lost, but that is another debate).
It is well known, for lack of thrushes we eat blackbirds. For 20 years, Anderlecht supporters have regretted the bygone times. In each era itsit was better before”. You have to learn (for the moment) to be content with it. Think, think and then act. Because Anderlecht’s ambition is to go up the ladder step by step. And as the most important match is always the next one, it starts with the reception of Kortrijk on Sunday evening, in an atmosphere that will be marked by the moving seal of tributes to Michel Verschueren…
