The first half of the topper actually gave birth to no more than a mouse. No goals and hardly any chances. Although Vincent Janssen saved Antwerp by twice turning a ball off the line. And shortly after half-time, Club escaped a counter goal when Ilenikhena was able to storm through on goal. Duels and fouls, but no goals.
That goal came ten minutes after half-time. Butez falls flat on a shot from Skov Olsen, but De Cuyper follows well and scores the 0-1 in the replay. Club Brugge seemed to hold on to that lead, but that was beyond Corbanie’s calculations. With a wonderful shot from outside the box, he left Mignolet no chance in minute 86: 1-1.
And the sting was right in the tail because with an ultimate free kick, Ondrekja was able to keep the three points at home. A shot, low in the corner, gave Mignolet no chance: 2-1. Club Brugge is not catching up with Union, but the Brussels team is already seventeen points clear.
