Rue Sous Meuse, Namêche (Union Namêchoise FC)
Belgium, province: Namur = Namen24 IX 2021 / Union Namêchoise FC - RSC Petit-Waret 0-3 (0-5/F) / Namur, Provincial League 3A (= BE level 8)
Note 1: Union Namêchoise FC, founded in 1952 (matricule 5585) as the successor of an earlier Union Namêchoise (matricule 2926), probably never applied for the royal epithet, which clubs usually do upon their fiftieth anniversary. Somewhere around the turn of the century, Namêchoise moved from their original ground at Rue Hierdeaux to their current premises on the banks of the river Meuse. I suspect the pitch might be unique in that it doubles as a baseball ground, a combination I've never seen or heard of before - and one which badly affects the quality of the underground.
Note 2: The match I attended in Namêche was won by Petit-Waret with a scoreline of 0-3, but later on Namur's Provincial Committee declared the match null and void, instead handing the away team a 0-5 'forfait' score due to a formal error committed by the home side - probably an ineligible player, as I remember officials whispering about one before the match started.
