Match Report
Royale Union SG turned Lotto Park upside down on Sunday, handing Anderlecht a comprehensive 3-1 defeat in the Pro League Championship Round — with a brace from Adem Zorgane doing most of the damage.
Zorgane put the visitors in front as early as the 17th minute and doubled the lead just eight minutes later. Mihajlo Cvetković, set up by Ali Maamar, gave the home side a lifeline in the 32nd minute, but the evening turned on a VAR-confirmed red card for Killian Sardella — violent conduct in the 45th-minute stoppage time — effectively ending Anderlecht's chances. Guilherme Smith applied the finishing touch in the 65th minute to make it 3-1.
The victory consolidates Royale Union SG's strong position in the Championship standings, while Anderlecht are left to regroup after a deflating afternoon — outplayed for large stretches and reduced to ten men at home.
