This Sunday, Sporting Anderlecht very logically won once morest Westerlo as part of the fourth day of the Jupiler Pro League. Alexis Flips released an excellent first, while Mats Rits appeared a little more subdued.
The fourth day of the Jupiler Pro League was on the program at Lotto Park this Sunday, for a meeting between Sporting d’Anderlecht and Westerlo. Alexis Flips holds for the Mauves, like Mats Rits. Francis Amuzu takes his place on the bench, along with Ludwig Augustinsson, Luis Vazquez, Louis Patris and Mario Stroeykens. Westerlo side, the former home Lucas Stassin holds. Nacer Chadli is on the bench.
And the least we can write is that Anderlecht does not drag things out. 25 seconds only, Théo Leoni is alerted on the left flank and serves Kasper Dolberg, which already opens the scoring (1-0, 1st). Then, Sporting will continue their domination. Alexis Flips already shows his excellent right foot on several occasions, while the conclusion is lacking (Raman, Dolberg, N’Diaye).
Sporting is never in danger as Westerlo is feverish, both defensively and in transitions. Alexis Flips once once more serves Dolberg, who is only one size short of doubling the lead. The end of the first period is calmer, the RSCA manages its advantage but forgot one thing in these first 45 minutes: to make the break.
The second period resumed at the same pace as the first. Anderlecht pushed hard shortly before the hour mark, via their excellent Flips-Raman-Dolberg trio. The conclusion is still missing, and it is not the recovery of Vertonghen in the clouds that will change anything.
Nacer Chadli comes into the game twenty minutes from time, applauded by Lotto Park. A few moments later, it was the turn of Alexis Flips to be applauded for his excellent first, Stroeykens replaced him. Meanwhile, Maxime Dupé still hasn’t made a single save.
The break, it will come from the feet of the captain. Jan Vertonghen is played as beautifully as too easily by Reynolds, arms a cross shot with the right foot which deceives Gillekens (2-0, 72nd). While we think this meeting is over, Westerlo will relaunch the debates ten minutes from time. Yusuke Matsuo’s breakthrough on the left flank is superb, the recovery of Jordanov leaves Dupé no chance (2-1, 81st).
Anderlecht continues to scare each other. Josimar Alcocer overflows on the right side and center, the diving header of Lucas Stassin grazes the bar of Maxime Dupé (85th). The first stop by the Anderlecht goalkeeper, he comes in the … 92nd minute and he is rather very easy, on a low and central strike from Matsuo.
Westerlo can no longer push and Anderlecht holds firm. Third victory of the season for the Mauves, who remain in contact with the leading group. The Campinois still have only one point and share the bottom of the table with Standard and Kortrijk.
