Efficient Anderlecht takes three points

Efficient Anderlecht takes three points

GAMES An efficient Anderlecht won 1-3 in Charleroi. With a minimum of effort, Anderlecht was ahead 0-2 after half an hour after an owngoal and a goal by Dolberg. But Charleroi, which often had the ball, was able to ease to 1-2 before halftime. In a sloppy and chance-poor second half, substitute Vazquez cleared the doubts with a very clever goal. Charleroi's biggest chance fell in the added time, but Schmeichel prevented a torrid finale for the purple and white. Anderlecht thus makes a good case in the standings and catches up a little on Union. Read more »

Finally another win against Gent

Finally another win against Gent

GAMES Anderlecht was able to win against Gent for the first time since 2018. In a rather messy match, it became 1-0 through a penalty by Dreyer.

In the closing stages, the purple and white got away well when Laforge disallowed the equalizer after Arnstad was brought down in a preceding duel, on the advice of the VAR.
