Back to winning ways with… a lot of stress and luck for her Genk!

Four days before the big rematch with Olympic in Belgium for his 3rd qualifier Europa LeagueBayan Heinen’s team had a very difficult time away from home Circle Bridge (0-1)as part of the 3rd matchday of the Jupiler Pro League!

The goal that decided the match and gave Genk the three points of victory, which ended a negative three-match streak against Olympiakos (1-0), Eupen (0-1) and Sevres (2-2), came in the 71st minute with an own goal by Warleson.

In the first half, however, Circle Bridge was the one who pressed and had the initiative of the movements, while, in the fifth minute of stoppage time, they won a penalty, which canceled after using VAR.

In the remaining games of the day, Club Brugge passed with flying colors 5-0 from the home of Eupen, with the former ace of Olympiakos, Philip Zinkernagel to make a dream debut with two goals! She also left with the double Anderlechtwhich prevailed with difficulty 1-0 at home to St. Truidenthanks to Ediage’s goal in the 53rd minute.
