Ten-headed AA Gent is still going under on the Bosuil, Frey is again important for mediocre Antwerp | Jupiler Pro League

Jupiler Pro LeagueSixth league win of the season for Antwerp. The ‘Great Old’ just won the top match against AA Gent (1-0), which played with ten for an hour after Chakvetadze was red. Thanks to the victory, Antwerp is leader in the standings, together with Eupen.




In a well-filled Bosuil, it was the home team that first became dangerous via Miyoshi, but Hanche-Olsen intervened before he could serve a teammate in the box. Why does this half chance make it to the record, you ask? Well because it was almost the only thing the ‘Great Old’ showed in that first half. For the rest, it was AA Gent that took control of the match.


Odjidja presented Depoitre with the greatest chance, but the striker decided straight on Butez. Chakvetadze was also free for goal, but tapped the ball a little too far, allowing Almeida to make a save. Moments later, the game was over for Chakvetadze. He continued firmly on the Achilles tendon of Pieter Gerkens (see video above). Boucaut didn’t flinch until VAR called him to the screen. Red was a logical consequence. Too bad for the Georgian, who had started the match well.

Antwerp could not play out the surplus immediately. Priske’s troops lost the ball all too easily and were pushed back into their own half at the beginning of the second half by the ten inhabitants of Ghent. Substitute Tissoudali blasted past. Antwerp, which threw in an extra striker with Samatta, gradually increased. Bolat had to shake a great parade out of his hands on a header from Samatta and Miyoshi also tested the gloves of the ex-goalkeeper of The Great Old.

In the end it was Frey, again he, who set the tone for Antwerp. Bolat pushed a phenomenal free kick from Verstraete against the crossbar and the ball fell out of the sky on the head of the Swiss. Even though there were three Gent players around him, ‘the tank’ doesn’t leave something like that. In the absolute final, Lemajic had the equalizer for AA Gent, but he incomprehensibly blasted over. Maybe good news for anyone who brought a walker to the stadium. Antwerp won, AA Gent remains at the bottom.

Play along with the Golden 11
