Match recap
Antwerp secured a comfortable 2-0 victory over KVC Westerlo in a Jupiler Pro League clash on Saturday. The home side asserted control early, creating several promising opportunities and eventually breaking the deadlock with a well-taken goal before the half-time whistle. Westerlo struggled to gain a foothold, often limited to defending deep and offering little threat in attack. The second half saw Antwerp maintain their dominance, adding a crucial second goal to solidify their lead. Despite Westerlo's attempts to find a way back into the game, Antwerp's defence held firm, seeing out the match without significant pressure. This win boosts Antwerp's league standing, while Westerlo will rue their inability to convert limited chances.
