That was the beautiful image of last weekend.

Football brings people together and unites them, that's undeniable. The supporters of RFC Liège proved it last Sunday, April 13th.

Brent Stevens, the reserve goalkeeper of Genk, was applauded by the opposing supporters.

In the last seconds of the match, a penalty was awarded to Liège, who were already leading 3-1. The 21-year-old goalkeeper perfectly opposed the shot. He didn't even have time to get up before the entire stadium applauded him. Why?

A few days before this Belgian second division match, Brent Stevens had lost his father. After his save, the young goalkeeper went to greet the supporters who were chanting his name.

A touching sequence that feels good.
