Antwerp saves from the penalty spot in added time and wins against Westerlo

A few moments after the opening score, Jordan Bos took advantage of a confusion in the rectangle and a lost ball to restart the proceedings with a flat-footed shot (23rd, 1-1).

Hanging in the penalty area, Bryan Reynolds won a penalty for his team. Griffin Yow was responsible for the conversion to allow the Campinois to take the lead (36th, 1-2).

Back from the locker room, and a little over ten minutes after the restart, Toby Alderweireld rose higher than everyone at the near post to cut a tense corner. The Antwerp defender’s header was slightly deflected by Alfie Devine into his own net, putting the two teams back on level terms (57th, 2-2).

The match almost swung in favor of Antwerp when Farouck Adekami sent a tight shot but the ball passed right next to the cages (88th).

In the final minutes, the Great Old won a penalty after a collision by Emin Bayram on Gyrano Kerk. Mahamadou Doumbia, recently returned from injury, took responsibility and gave his team victory with a shot into the roof of the goal (90th + 6, 3-2).
