Match Report

Anderlecht beat shot-shy Salzburg to move onto six points

Anderlecht beat Salzburg 2-0 at Lotto Park on Thursday night, and the visitors did not manage a single shot in the first half. A free kick settled that period and a late chip made sure of the points. Ludwig Augustinsson curled his set piece over the wall in the 20th minute for the only goal before the break. The hosts thought they had a second in the closing stages through Marten Winkler, but VAR ruled the ball had crossed the byline before the cross came in. Winkler did get his goal in the 90th minute, lifting the ball over Zawieschitzky after a counter. Tabakovic headed over for Salzburg, and Drexler hit Coosemans in the face with a free kick late on. The win leaves Anderlecht on 6 points from four games, around 14th in the table. Salzburg stay on 4 points from four and sit 23rd for now.
