The start of the game confirmed this trend with the Belgian team such as this cross from Versailles that White couldn’t get back. Conversely, Australia took advantage of small individual Belgian errors, unusual in recent games. After the first free caution, Schonell opened the scoring after a dangerous recovery from the Belgian defense in the 7th. With this advantage, the Australian team got two PCs which were dismissed by Sotkyu and his defence.
The second quarter was much better and in favor of the Red Panthers who multiplied the chances: first Bartram cleared the try through the wide, then Struik shot over the goal and finally two PC. But Australia, if bent, did not break. Early in the third quarter, they scored a second on PC, and Malone turned a layup from Fitzpatrick into the goal. It’s a blow to the head for Belgium. Who is quick to act with die-hard White almost fooling Bartram’s vigilance. Then, minutes later, Vanden Borre crossed the goal. Three for Belgium and one for Australia in the last quarter but none were converted. The score has not changed. Australia suffered their second loss against Belgium in this edition of the Pro League. The Red Panthers will have responded to the physical challenge presented to them. This Sunday, it will be necessary to iron out small errors, especially in the fundamentals, and to be a little more sharp in the opposite circle.
Reaction Alexia ‘t Serstevens: “We wanted to put a lot of pressure on Australia, but we missed a lot of simple gestures. We struggled to find ourselves in 25 opponents, the last pass or the last gesture was sometimes not there today. We responded well in the second quarter. We continued to improve and our victories And we learn from our failures. We’ll respond this Sunday.”
