Lommel SK 4-0 Westerlo result, stats and report

Westerlo claimed a deserved 2-0 victory at Sint-Truiden on Sunday, with Norman Bassette and Cisse Sandra scoring either side of half-time to leave the home side with nothing to show for 17 shots.

A goalless stalemate at Lommel SK saw Mechelen create the clearer opportunities but fail to convert, with Lommel's goalkeeper making four saves to preserve a point that does little for either side.

Union Saint-Gilloise put on a ruthless display at home, scoring five without reply to dismantle Lommel SK completely. Raul Florucz came off the bench to grab two late goals and put the final stamp on a performance that left nothing to debate.

Lommel SK claimed a hard-fought 1-0 victory at Cercle Brugge, with Tom Reyners' 61st-minute finish proving the difference as the hosts extended their winless run to five matches in the Belgian Pro League.

Westerlo were taken apart at Mechelen on Saturday, conceding four without reply as Shunsuke Saito scored twice and the visitors offered almost nothing in return.
