Union Saint-Gilloise paid lasting tribute to Liverpool ahead of the Europa League
Union Saint-Gilloise host Liverpool in their final Europa League group game of the season on Thursday Liverpool’s Wataru Endo and Ibrahima Konate challenge for the ball during the UEFA Europa League match against Union Saint-Gilloise at Anfield on October 5, 2023. Royale Union Saint-Gilloise paid tribute to tomorrow’s Europa League match at their home stadium with a specially made stained glass window. Jürgen Klopp men travel to Belgium to complete this stage of the competition, although unfortunately there is little riding on the game as they have already qualified for the finals as Group E winners. USG, meanwhile, has a chance to sneak into the playoffs as well, assuming a win against the Reds and a Toulouse loss against LASK. As a result, both teams have very different perspectives for Thursday’s game, and this is supported by a special tribute from the Belgians before kick-off. USG showed the Joseph Marien Stadium stained glass windows via social media with the text: and quot;This Thursday opens a new chapter in our history. We have already brought the game to the home field in our own historic style.andquot; The art was presented symmetrically with a yellow and red player. The art was displayed in various locations around their 104-year-old ground, including the stadium and main entrance in front of the full stained glass window depicting the clubhouse and crest. . Unfortunately, Liverpool will not be visiting the historic 9,400-seat stadium in person, as USG have opted to host European games at nearby Anderlechtand#039;s Lotto Park, which has a capacity of 21,000, before the start of the season. The reason was that the Stade Joseph Marien did not meet the requirements set out in UEFA law.
