Mechelen vs RSC Anderlecht

Anderlecht came from behind to claim all three points at Mechelen's Achter De Kazerne, two substitute goals doing the damage in a scrappy Championship Group clash. KV Mechelen went into the break ahead after Bouke Boersma struck in first-half stoppage time (45+8'). Anderlecht hit back after the restart, with Mihajlo Cvetkovic levelling on 62 minutes before Adriano Bertaccini — teed up by Ludwig Augustinsson — completed the turnaround on 71. Both scorers came off the bench. Yellow cards were a theme throughout, with multiple players on either side cautioned across a feisty 90 minutes. The win extends Anderlecht's strong recent run — their ninth goal in five matches — while KV Mechelen will rue a dominant display that yielded nothing in the end. Goalkeeper Colin Coosemans was named Player of the Match as Anderlecht held firm despite the hosts registering 18 shots on the night.
