Union SG went top of the Pro League on Sunday evening with a 1-0 win over Genk, settled by a Ross Sykes header in the 76th minute. It was goalless at the break after a first half of half-chances. Kevin Rodriguez ran through for Union, but Matte Smets got back to clear. At the other end Rafiu Durosinmi was denied by Hervé Koffi, though he was flagged offside anyway. Genk keeper Luca Brughmans then stopped efforts from Raul Florucz and Guilherme. The breakthrough came when Besfort Zeneli delivered the ball and Sykes nodded in at the second post. Daan Heymans sent a late chance wide for Genk. There were no red cards and no penalties. Union have 29 points from 11 games, one clear of Bruges and Gent on 28. Genk, set up with a back three after their defeat at Mechelen, stay seventh on 15 points, 14 behind the leaders.
