The Union Saint-Gilloise achieved a historic feat by winning 3-1 at Eindhoven against the PSV in its very first match in the Champions League. This victory marks an important milestone in the history of the Brussels club, which has demonstrated exceptional character, remarkable intensity and formidable efficiency on the ground. Davida opened the penalty score, followed by Anouar Ait El Hadj, the match man for his outstanding performance, before Kevin Mac Allister sealed the win.

Sébastien Pocognoli, the Union’s coach, expressed his pride after this success, particularly stressing the performance of Ait El Hadj, whose goal was expected and whose defensive work was described as “fantastic”. He also highlighted the intensity and dry-cleaning deployed by his team, considering this match one of their best, especially since it was a match in the Champions League.

This triumph confirms that the Union Saint-Gilloise did not come to the Champions League for the simple figure of head. In just five years, the Brussels club has experienced a staggering rise, proving its ability to compete with the best European teams and write a new page in its history. This victory is a reward for the work accomplished and a source of motivation for the future.
