Ostend and Antwerp conclude game day nine with a mutual duel. The home team has to deal with a sober one in nine. Antwerp is where it wants to be and hope to confirm this place.
Ostend:
A little more grinta at Racing Genk in the initial phase than the past races and that was quickly rewarded. William Dutoit saved an excellent header, but in the following phase Ronald Vargas worked the ball into his own goal. Genk ahead and the game in hand and yet things went wrong before the break. Idrissa Sylla managed to beat his attacker in the air and headed the ball in nicely. The blow just before half-time did not come to Oostende.
KV Oostende had to return to the coast empty-handed on Saturday evening, but Kare Ingebrigtsen was not dissatisfied. He thought his team was doing quite well. “Genk was strong in the first fifteen minutes of the game. We had expected such a start. After their lead, I thought we were good football, we were in control of the game and we scored a very nice goal, “the coach analyzed. In minute 44, Genk scored the 2-1, a particularly bad moment for Ostend. “Genk also started the best in the second half, but then we got better again. I thought we played well. ”
The class difference in the cup competition quickly came to the surface. Ostend made an early goal, from the spot, and that was enough to vainly pursue the more than deserving boys of Mandel. After the break, Mandel became Ostend’s counterpart, who opted for certainty on the hour and Sane exchanged for work-animal Kevin Vandendriessche. Fashion Sakala took away all doubts in the final minutes.
Antwerp:
The crazier his tours, the greater his cult status. Lamkel Zé is more popular than ever on the Bosuil and entertained his supporters with two goals against Cercle Brugge.

The technical staff is also doing everything they can to keep Lamkel Zé in line.
Antwerp did not play its best match against Cercle Brugge. Fortunately the VAR corrected an early backlog. Lamkel Zé was more successful after a few chances. The Cameroonian was released by Defour and cut in front of his judge. After a deviated shot, the visitors came alongside. In the second half, Mbokani gave the lead and Kevin Mirallas gave Lamkel Zé his second of the evening.
What did not work out last year, Antwerp did well in the cup this week. The Great Old survived its first cup round, but needed extensions for that against 1B-club Lokeren. Pe party was barely ten seconds, two passes and six ball keys when Lokeren took the lead. The visitors could not enjoy their lead for a long time. Diemerci Mbokani finished his eighth of the season. Afterwards, both teams scored again, so that extensions were needed. Antwerp was able to pull the sheet in it.
