BELGIUM: RFC Soumagne

Stade Jean Collette, Soumagne Soumagne-Bas (RFC Soumagne)

Belgium, province: Liège = Luik

22 V 2022 / RFC Soumagne - R Baelen FC 1-2 / Liège, Provincial League 3 - relegation play-off final (= BE level 8)

Note 1: My match visit at Stade Jean Collette was a play-off final between two teams who had just avoided direct relegation into Provincial League 4, for one last ticket in Provincial League 3. Due to the result, RFC Soumagne were relegated to the lowest division of Liège's provincial league system, whilst R Baelen FC just saved their skin in "P3".

Note 2: Football Club (FC) Soumagne has been home at Rue Ladrie from the club's foundation in 1969 (matricule 7332) onwards; when one of the founding members, Jean Collette, passed away in 1977, the ground was named after him. In 2019, upon the club's fiftieth anniversary, the royal epithet was acquired, as a result of which FC Soumagne became RFC Soumagne.
