Niederkorn’s card king and streets gentlemen: The Fair Play table of the BGL Ligue

The BGL Ligue is over. While street strikers Matheus became top scorer with 23 goals, Differdingen successfully defended his championship title. But what teams were the (un) fairest of the league?

In the Fair Play table of the « Luxemburger Word », a yellow card with a penalty point, a yellow-red card with three penalty points and a red card with five penalty points is evaluated. The fewer penalty points a team collected in the course of the season, the better their placement in the ranking. In the event of a tie, the team is better listed with fewer cards. Not only the cards of the players were taken into account.

Streets and rosport only received one yellow-red card. However, the runner -up has received fewer yellow cards (62) as Rosport (68) and therefore leads the ranking with 65 points. With ten yellow-red cards and three red cards, Niederkorn has meanwhile conceded most of the references in the past season and forms the bottom of the ranking with 128 points. The two Escher clubs Fola and Jeunesse have received ten references each and have 121 and 116 points the penultimate and third -last place.

Of course, the teams’ fair play cannot be assessed on the cards obtained alone. Dudelingen’s Samir Hadji impressively demonstrated this on the last matchday of the season. At 1-0 against Bettemburg, Hadji admitted that he had touched a ball with his foot, whereupon the supposed 2: 0 was revoked because of his offside position. However, such actions were not taken into account in this ranking.

In the 1/32 final of the Coupe de Luxembourg, the association demonstrated that the fair play idea is also very important in Niederkorn. At that time Stand Niederkorn for Aspelt’s players Spellier And thus rewarded the courageous appearance of the third division.
