Ross Sykes made a late cameo for Union Saint-Gilloise against Liverpool in the Europa League but he has previously had a spell on Merseyside with Southport FC
At the beginning of October 2017, Ross Sykes was bedding in for his first loan period away from Accrington Stanley with Southport, in the National League North.
“When you put it like that, time flies,” he said, dialling in from Antwerp, close to Union Saint-Gilloise’s training centre.“It’s incredible to play in games like this and hopefully, there’s many more to come,” the defender added. He said: “I thought we played well as a team, maybe on another day, there’s a couple of chances in there that we could take.
The Belgian Pro League leaders drew their opening Europa League game against Toulouse FC as Mohamed Amoura cancelled out Thijs Dallinga’s first-half penalty. The build-up to Thursday's matchday two of the Europa League group stage was dominated by the prospect of Liverpool midfielder Alexis Mac Allister playing his brother Kevin, of Union Saint-Gilloise.
