RFC Liège Prepares for Challenging Season in National 1 as Level of Competition Rises

The team will be too. The preparation campaign was positive, with prestigious successes at Eupen, Willem II and Maastricht. The results are anecdotal but they testify to the solidity of Liège. “We worked well physically and the new ones integrated well”explained Benjamin Lambot.

These ingredients will not be superfluous in an antechamber where the level has never seemed so important. Beveren, Zulte Waregem, Deinze and Lommel are ambitious, while the youth teams have taken on an extra year of experience. “I knew the D1B with eight clubs. Since then, the level has not stopped growing and in my opinion, the first two divisions are part of a single group, where only the details make the difference. This year, we will play against guys who have ten or fifteen years of experience at the highest level”continues the defender.

Benjamin Lambot and Gaëtan Englebert have the necessary experience to alert novices. The “easy” National 1 matches will not exist on the upper floor.
