Convincing wins for Club Brugge and AA Gent

In the last of the weekend’s First Division games there were big wins for the league-leaders Club Brugge and for AA Gent. Club Brugge enjoyed a 3-0 home win against Waasland-Beveren, while AA won 3-0 away in the East Flemish derby against Sporting Lokeren.

To say that AA Gent’s 3-0 win was deserved would be an understatement. AA Gent controlled the game. Dejaegere open the scoring for AA Gent on 42 minutes. Mpati Bibuangu was sent off on 51 minutes for his second bookable offence leaving Sporting Lokeren down to ten men for much of the second half.

Kalu 76 made it 2-0 to AA Gent and Gigot made it 3-0 to the Buffaloes 6 minutes from time. The result sees AA moves up to 10th place with 19 points from 15 games. Sporting Lokeren is 12th with 16 points.

Club Brugge extend lead at the top

Club Brugge are back 6 points clear at the top of the Belgian First Division after a 3-0 home win against Waasland-Beveren. Vormer opened the scoring for Club on 40 minutes.

Cools made it 2-0 3 minutes into the second half. Hans Vanaken’s 83rd minute goal made for a final score of 3-0 in Club Brugge’s favour.

Club Brugge remain top of the league with 37 points from 15 games. Waasland-Beveren are 7th with 21 points.
