RSC Anderlecht outclassed Athletic Bilbao today at Vanden Stock Stadium. The Mauves clearly showed that they were the better team tonight by beating the Spanish club 4-0.


The home side started furiously with Lukaku opening the score after just four minutes of play. In a swift attack, Boussoufa opened the visitor's defence with a piercing pass. Lukaku's hard shot was unstoppable.

The visitors were unable to react. They created one chance via Llorente. Anderlecht controlled the game, periodically counter attacking well. Before the break, the score was doubled when San José deflected a dangerous center into his own goal.

After the break, Anderlecht humiliated Bilbao. Juhasz headed the third goal against the nets. And a bit later, Legear scored a magnificent fourth goal. Boussoufa passed to the winger on a free kick who blasted the ball into the top corner with an effort from 20 meters out.

Boussoufa, Van Damme and De Sutter, who had replaced Lukaku, had good chances on scoring a fifth for the Belgians, but they both missed. This way the game ended on 4-0, 5-1 on aggregate.
