FLASHBACK Royal Sporting Club Anderlechtois becomes Belgian champion for the first time in its history. On June 29, the 1946-1947 season officially ends, and the Mauves receive their very first championship trophy.
They finish with a 2-point lead over Olympic Charleroi, but since they had won three more matches, they were already mathematically certain of the title the week before. At that time, a win was worth two points.
Jef Mermans, who else, becomes the top scorer.
Mermans scores an impressive 39 goals in 34 matches. He helps Anderlecht to a total of 112 goals scored and an incredible goal difference of +53!
