De Roeck wins on debut as STVV end Zulte Waregem's slide
St. Truiden gave new coach Jonas De Roeck a winning start, beating Waregem 4-1 at Stayen on Sunday. It was their first win since early September and ended a run of 15 league points without success.
Shion Shinkawa scored after seven minutes and Nelson Ishiwatari added a second in the 12th. Zalan Atrok pulled one back for the visitors in the 14th. The game then stayed at 2-1 for almost an hour. In the 64th minute Ilias Sebaoui converted a penalty after Nathanael Mbuku was brought down in the box. Kaito Matsuzawa made it 4-1 two minutes later, after the VAR overturned an initial offside flag. Youssoupha Mbodji was sent off for Waregem in the 74th minute for a heavy tackle on Matsuzawa.
This was a sixth straight league defeat for Waregem, who have taken no points from the last 18 available. Both clubs are now on 11 points, with St. Truiden 12th and Waregem 14th.
