Because yes, the men of Nicolas Henkinet managed, this Sunday, to stand up to roll, a training which however evolves in D1 VV, two levels higher than the Geerois. All thanks to enormous solidarity to emerge after 120 minutes … and from the penalty shootout.
Friday, on the sidelines of this meeting, Nicolas Henkinet warned us: yes; It was possible to see Geer being rolled on it by visitors. But from that, it was not. And it was even necessary to wait for the very end of the first period to see the men of Lieven Gevaert putting a slightly contribution, without making the nets tremble.
A first relief for local supporters, who said to themselves that their protégés had already held well. But barely the second act had taken up thirty seconds when Clyncke threw cold on rue de Boëlhe, enjoying a breeze in the local surface (0-1).
Vigil bajo and determinant racz
We then say to ourselves that the task looks complicated for the Blues, but this goal had the gift of giving them a boost. So much so that Georges, of an acrobatic recovery, sees his attempt hitting the latte. It is only part given because, shortly after the hour of play, Vigil Bajo, of a magnificent brushed free kick, puts the two teams on a par (1-1).
From then on, the more the minutes pass, the more the nervousness increases in the chief of the visitors. And the more the minutes pass, the more the Blues are cornered, but hold good, thanks, in particular, to an anthony racz particularly inspired this Sunday.
At the end of the ninety minutes, everyone thinks he is heading for the penalty shootout, but the regulations provide for the entry according to the extensions from … 4 rounds and no longer on the 5th as it was before. Twice an additional fifteen minutes which do not allow the two teams to decide. And it was then that Anthony Racz comes to complete his work by pushing two Roularian attempts to send Geer to the fifth round of this Belgian Cup. One more line in history books for the protégés of Maxime Beauduin, simply magnificent!

Henkinet: “Clubs need that”
As soon as the match was finished than Nicolas Henkinet was harpooned from all sides to receive the congratulations of Geerois sympathizers. “”I am really happy with this match, of this collective demonstration. You had to be united and the guys wereabounds the local mentor. I am super proud of them because it allows a whole club to unite behind these performances. Clubs need that.

Vigil Bajo: “I felt that I was going to do something”
The magician Vigil Bajo still went there with a magic free kick to equalize. Before the apotheosis we know. “” I don’t know why, but I felt that I was going to do something. And then, Anthony (Racz)Made a crazy match, I really like it! It is magnificent for the club which evolves year after year, the family grows each time. And what makes us win is our state of mind.“
Racz: “Give me full for coaches”
Little by little, Anthony Racz is becoming a specialist in the Belgian Cup. After his 16th finals with Verlaine, here he is again in the 5th round. On leaving, what’s more, a five -star match. “”Yes, I think I go out a few important bullets and two shots on goal, it’s always nice. We know it’s always a lottery, but I wanted to give myself full for the coaches who trusted me. And it ends well for us (smile)”.
SK Roeselare
Un staff XXXXXXL
We knew it even before the meeting, but it was confirmed this Sunday: Geer and Roulers do not box (yet) in the same category. And this, despite the end result. Thus, the Flanders had chartered a coach for their players and the staff as well as a van to transport all their equipment. Without forgetting a car for supporters. Moreover, on the match sheet, and while the Blues already have a beautiful staff with nine informed, we had thirteen in the camp opposite! So much so that the Roularians have requisitioned three changing rooms to be able to make room for all these beautiful people. Just that …
