That it would not be a simple evening for Club, immediately became clear in the first fifteen minutes. La Louvière was combined and did not have to be inferior to the visitors of Bruges. The home team had his moments for goal and received an extra boost when the VAR reversed a penalty kick for Club Brugge around fifteen minutes.
Thanks to a blunder from club goalkeeper Nordin Jackers, who went under the ball at a corner, La Louvière was also able to take the lead. Defender Wagane Faye nodded the not even undeserved opening goal in the second post. The home team also came very close to the 2-0 before the break, but the header of Owen Maes narrowly disappeared next.
Club coach Nicky Hayen realized that his team had to tap out of a different barrel and took strong holders Christos Tzolis, Joel Ordonez and Raphael Onyedika from the bank. The input of the trio did not immediately bear fruit, although Tzolis almost decorated a penalty kick. A shot from the Greek went against the La Louvière defender Djibril Lamego, but again the VAR waved the penalty kick.
The Videoref would eventually work overtime, because it continued to rain penalty phases. In the added time, Club called twice for a penalty, which eventually got it. Club seemed to avoid a defeat in extremis, but Tzolis rashed the leather and made sure that Club was left without a point.
