The matches between RSC Anderlecht and KRC Genk have already caused quite a stir this season. Racing even wants to replay the most recent clash due to a refereeing error. But the first match was also full of incidents.
At the beginning of September, the current vice champion and record champion drew 1-1 after a difficult match. Genk almost ended the match with one man less between the lines. Christopher Bonsu Baah had already received a questionable red card after fifteen minutes of play.
De Condé outburst of anger
However, Dimitri De Condé, Racing’s football manager, did not agree with that decision at all. And he made it clear by giving the referee a verbal shower. That excess ultimately earned him a two-game suspension and a hefty fine.
In a long conversation with The newspaper De Condé is now returning to that episode again, for which he has apologized profusely. “At that moment it all became too much for me, I wanted to defend my players and my club. I don’t want to be Calimero, but there are many people independent from the world of football who have underlined it several times that we were not particularly advantaged either in the last season nor this season,” it seems.
Accident with Vertonghen
After all, De Condé didn’t just have problems managing the match. After the match he also clashed with Jan Vertonghen. The Anderlecht captain had tried to book some Genk players during the match and De Condé did not accept.
But both gentlemen ultimately dealt with the incident as adults. “The affair with Vertonghen was resolved the next day. Jan called me, we understood that we are both men who do everything possible for their club. And we had gone too far,” said De Condé.
