ANderlecht failed to take advantage of his domination and was forced to share 0-0 against Antwerp on Saturday, on the eighth day of the championship. Anderlecht is fifth, with 11 points. Antwerp occupy tenth place, with 10 points.
The Mauves tried to take their opponent at the throat from the start of the match, but the men of Besnik Hasi had a hard time creating frank goal opportunities. The first shot from the meeting only intervened at half an hour of play after a strike from Enric Llansana, captured without difficulty by Yannick Thoelen.
The Antwerp, who knew how to make their back, created the most dangerous opportunity of the first period. A resumption of Thibo Somers found the post defended by Colin Cosemans before half-time (42nd).
The duels then intensified but neither of the two teams knew how to take the advantage. Anderlecht continues a fifth game without a victory, all competitions combined.
The Great Old has not imposed itself on the Lotto Park since September 15, 2019 and a 1-2 victory.
On Tuesday, Anderlecht will receive the Gantoise in the alignment match of the fifth day of the championship. The match had been postponed to allow Anderlecht to prepare for its European dam.
