BELGIUM: RCS Visétois (1924-2004) / RCS Visé (2004-2015) / FC United Richelle (2015-) / URS Lixhe-Lanaye (2015-2016) / URSL Visé (2016-) / Visé BMFA (2016-) / R Standard de Liège (B) (2023-)

Stade de la Cité de l'Oie, Visé = Wezet (FC United Richelle, Union Royale Sportive Lixhe-Visé & Visé Basse-Meuse Football Academy, formerly RCS Visétois / RCS Visé / URS Lixhe-Lanaye)

Belgium, province: Liège = Luik

10 II 2008 / RCS Visé - R Cappellen FC 2-2 / National League 3B (= BE level 3)

Note 1: the Stade de la Cité de l'Oie in its current form dates back to 1999. Originally used by RCS Visétois (renamed RCS Visé in 2004), which went bust in mid-2015, the ground was taken over by FC United Richelle, a club from a village in the immediate vicinity of Visé which had just won promotion to National League 4 and could not continue playing first team football at their own Tilleuls ground which does not have the measurements for national league football. They were joined by URS Lixhe-Lanaye, who left their premises at Rue de Liège in Lixhe; one year later, Lixhe took on the name of URSL Visé. That same year, a new club saw the daylight, Visé Basse-Meuse Football Academy (matricule 9671), an academy club exclusively focusing on youth football, which became the third user of the Stade de la Cité de l'Oie.
