BELGIUM: SC Donk (1965-2019) / K Herk FC (B) (2019-)

Site 'Jef Vanhese', Donk Limb. (K Herk FC, B ground, formerly SC Donk)

Belgium, province: Limburg

26 VIII 2021 / K Herk FC - Juve Hasselt 1-1 - penalty shoot-out won by Herk (5-4) / Limburg, Provincial Cup - Region South-West, semi-final

Note: SC Donk, founded in 1965, gave up their matricule in 2019 to be absorbed by K Herk FC. While Herk's first team play their matches at Herk-de-Stad's Maurice Baensstadion, the B selection are home in Donk. The match I attended was played in Donk by Herk A because of the delay in  works involving a synthetic pitch being put in place at the Baensstadion.
