De Seraing in Eupen, via Kortrijk and a tense match against the leader of the Bruges championship, the Standard’s journey in the Belgian Cup will not have been easy, especially given the weather conditions on the first two trips. Better, it will have allowed the players of Mbaye Leye to show their best face, much more beautiful than that displayed in the league since the start of the season. For Laurent Henkinet, Damjan Pavlovic, Moussa Sissako and Jackson Muleka, the Belgian Cup will even have been a unique opportunity to come out of the shadows and thus show their coach that he could count on them in the chopping matches. A good omen before the final scheduled for the end of April against Genk, but also for the championship which starts again on Friday… at the Luminus Arena.
