Wevelgem has to go back over the bridge without points

KV Kortrijk-Zulte Waregem is just a surrogate Vlassico, they find in Lauwe and Wevelgem. This is the real duel of the Golden River, the Lys that lies between the two municipalities.

The goalkeeper of ‘Witstar Lauwe’ let a Dieter Meulenyzer place ball slip clumsily under his hands after seventeen minutes. Wevelgem is not undeservedly ahead 0-1, but does not push further after that. From then on, the youngsters of Lauwe take control of the game. They decorate chance after chance. In the end it is Arend Callewaert who climbs the highest on a corner and heads in the deserved equalizer.

Three minutes later, another standard phase with Vancompernolle towards the far post. The ball comes in front of the goal, Deman first with the excellent reflex, but on Kevin Bostyn’s second attempt he still has to give in. Lauwe-Wevelgem is 2-1 at halftime. After the break, it is mainly enjoying the derby atmosphere. Substitute Lefebvre still scores the 3-1, but it is disallowed due to a mistake on the goalkeeper.

For the first time in a long time, Wevelgem knows what losing is all about.
