VSFC Kosova Schaerbeek
On Sunday, 9 February, FC Irlande Ladies III welcomes FC Kosova Schaerbeek.
FCI starts the match in possession of the ball and since the first minutes shows a different attitude compared to the previous match. Despite the strength of Kosova, FCI players do not look stressed and are not scared to play and challenge the opponent. The first-time attacking duo, Maria and Meryl, manage to break through Kosova’s defence and, while not creating clear chances to score, bring home different corners. Beaty, appointed to kick the corners, delivers the ball in the penalty area, finding Alex ready to take a shot that is deflected by opponent defenders, the ball ends on Gabi’s leg and finishes inside the goal (Fortunately, the match reporter was there to see what was happening). At 23’, 1-0 for FCI. For the first time this season, FCI is winning a match. For seven glorious minutes… At 30’, Kosova scores the equaliser as well from a corner kick but this time thanks to a great header. The first half ends 1-1.
FCI enters the pitch knowing what to expect: Kosova wants to win and will use all the weapons at its disposal to achieve the result. Already in the first minutes of the second half, Kosova goes close to scoring with FCI’s defence stopping consecutive shots that seem destined for the goal. With the minutes passing, Kosova increases its offensive pressure and dangerousness and obtains a penalty that Marina blocks at a canter. Kosova has repeatedly the chance to score but fate and Marina say no. Also, a well-kicked and deflected free-kick cannot pass Marina. FCI fights until the end and stops Kosova with the result of 1-1.
What a Sunday to remember: another point against one of the teams at the top of the league, better sandwiches at the buvette and a chocolate cake. FCI showed once again a biblical attitude towards football, fearlessly fighting all the Goliath on its way and also putting its heart into this challenge.
Player of the match: Marina

Azur 1
VSFC Irlande Men 1
The Firsts traveled to Sint-Stevens-Woluwe to face newly promoted Azur. We got off to a fantastic start, with Erik breaking through and setting up Arjan for the opening goal: 0-1. Rachid came close to doubling the lead with two well-struck free kicks, both narrowly missing the target. Our pressure continued, and after a brilliant dribble, Rachid delivered a perfect cross for Erik to finish, making it 0-2.
Just before halftime, Azur pulled one back to make it 1-2 after we forgot to mark their players.
The second half proved much more challenging. After a tough 20 minutes, our passing and movement became less effective. The game took a turn when Ciaran, attempting to clear the ball, accidentally caught an Azur player in the box, conceding a penalty. Azur made the 2-2. Things went from bad to worse when Arjan surprisingly received a red card, leaving us with 10 men for the remainder of the match.
Special thanks to Noel for stepping in. Man of the Match: Erik.

@Another tough loss for the Men in green that saw the 3 points being taken away by 2 goals through the back of the defence and a fistful of lost chances. Great football was played, but the last touch to the goal needs to be more effective. Doesn’t reflect our quality and we need to turn this around. MOTM: Victor

VSFC Irlande Vets 2
Vets2 played at abssa’s smallest pitch (and most surrealistic changing rooms) vs Entente, 24 points ahead of us on the table. So an easy game for them on paper… And yet the game was very close, with few chances on either side for the first 55 minutes. We had a crossbar at 0-0 that could have changed the game, but instead we took 3 goals in the last 15 minutes. David got a beautiful goal straight from a corner to make it 3-1, and that was the final score. Overall a very good team performance. Thanks to Gregorio and David MR for helping out. MOTM: David

SYB
VSFC Irlande Men 4
4ths travelled to Anderlecht to face of against relegation rivals Syb. The mood prior to the game was one of optimism with everyone knowing the battle that was to come, especially given the pitch conditions.
4ths started with intensity trying to stamp some authority on the fixture. Unfortunately Syb were not willing to submit easily and were effective with their long ball game. This lead to a corner mid way through the first half and a Syb attacker was unfortunately left unmarked and headed home for 1-0.
4ths tried to get going again and created some occasional half chances just before and after the interval. The keeper was able to keep the chances out.
As the game wore on, 4ths threw on some subs but they continued to huff and puff and nothing quite fell for them.
The match finished 1-0. It looks like a tough job but the fight continues for these final 6 games and there is still hope.

VSMaccabi Brussels A
FCI stepped onto the pitch determined to claim all three points, fuelled by the lingering frustration of their narrow loss in the away match against Maccabi. The players, alongside the coaching staff and VP, carried an extra spark of motivation, which showed from the very first whistle.
The team started with high intensity and was quickly rewarded when Jenny confidently converted a penalty to give FCI the lead. However, the advantage was short-lived, as Maccabi struck back just a few minutes later to level the score. Undeterred, FCI pressed forward, and its efforts paid off before the break, with Pauline producing a moment of brilliance to restore the lead.
The second half saw FCI continue to impress, but Maccabi found another equalizer from a corner, setting up a tense finish. With time ticking away and multiple chances narrowly missing the mark, FCI finally broke through in the dying minutes with Gillian, displaying relentless energy and sharp precision in front of goal – netting not just one, but two late goals to seal a well-deserved victory. The win not only secured vital points but also pushed the team a step closer to the coach’s season dream of reaching 30 points.
