Talks with Jannik Vestergaard

Talks with Jannik Vestergaard

The transfer market closes at 0h00 on Wednesday night, so not much time remains to finalise incoming transfers. According to transfer specialist Sacha Tavolieri, Anderlecht are talking to Leicester City's Dane Jannik Vestergaard.

Genk scores equalizer in extra time

Genk scores equalizer in extra time

Anderlecht played 1-1 in Genk in an animated match in which a lot of cards were drawn. However, purple and white played almost the entire match against ten men after two quick yellow for Bah. Still, Genk remained the more dangerous team and Anderlecht could hardly threaten. After half-time, Anderlecht played slightly better and substitute Amuzu scored the 0-1 goal. Vazquez almost scored as well. But in the long extra time, substitute Tolu headed the equaliser just before the final whistle. In itself, a draw at Genk is not a bad result, but giving away the win in the closing stages against ten men is obviously a disappointment. Read more »
