Standard Liege finishes the season in 8th place with 37 points. The team shows hopeful signs for the next season. In the Jupiler Pro League, Standard Liege scored 37 points, finishing in 8th place. The team had a goal difference of 44-46 and Rafiki Saïd was the top scorer with 8 goals. Adnane Abid was the assist king with 5 assists. The team had a strong transfer policy under the leadership of Marc Wilmots, who focused on character players and speed in the transition. On the counter-attack, Standard Liege could also hurt many opponents. However, the team did not have the profiles to break down an organization in home games. The numbers were proof: Standard Liege scored many more points away than at home. If Wilmots makes work of this in the summer, Sclessin will really be able to shine next season. The best win of Standard Liege was against Anderlecht with 2-0. The most painful defeat was against Cercle Brugge with 0-3. In the Walloon press, Standard Liege was recently described as the best counter-attack team in the country, together with Union Saint-Gilloise. There is something to it. Especially flank players Adnane Abid and Rafiki Saïd profited optimally from the tactical approach of Vince Euvrard. Not coincidentally, they shared the most goals under their duo. Furthermore, the Liège players relied on their defensive strength. Josué Homawoo turned out to be an unexpected top signing, while Ibrahim Karamoko often fought for two on the midfield. If a opponent did get through, Matthieu Epolo stood in the way. The 21-year-old goalkeeper performed a lot more solidly than in his debut season. It seems like an eternity ago, but Standard Liege started this campaign with Mircea Rednic as T1. With his outdated principles, it turned out to be a miscast of the first order, which Wilmots (luckily for Standard) quickly realized. At the end of August, Vince Euvrard took over. From Denderleeuw to the Vurige Stede, it was a big step. Yet, the newcomer gathered players and management behind him immediately. Euvrard did that from his familiar game vision: defensively disciplined and sharp in the transition. Not always spectacular, but with this team the most efficient. Wilmots and co are already satisfied with his work, as evidenced by the contract extension that Euvrard signed a week ago. The final score for Standard Liege is 6.5 out of 10.
