Anderlecht – Charleroi SC: A Goalless Stalemate

In a lackluster display of soccer at Lotto Park, Anderlecht and Charleroi SC faced off for round eight of the Pro League, resulting in a 0-0 draw. The match featured limited opportunities, with both teams struggling to find the back of the net. Goalkeeper Colin Coosemans shone early for Charleroi, stopping a shot from Daan Heymans. The most significant attempts came from Anderlecht's Kilian Sardella and later from Yari Verschaeren, but neither could secure a lead.

Key Match Highlights

• Coosemans' reflex save on Heymans' early shot (3rd minute).
• Sardella's long-range attempt failed to beat Koné just before halftime (40th minute).
• Dendoncker's header was thwarted by Koné in the second half (56th minute).

In a dramatic finish, Nilson Angulo missed a golden chance for Anderlecht in stoppage time (90+1 minute) as Isaac Mbenza's effort for Charleroi was also saved by Coosemans (90+2 minute). This match marked Anderlecht's fourth consecutive game without a win under interim coach David Hubert, following the dismissal of Brian Riemer.

Looking Ahead

As both teams sit closely in league standings, with Charleroi in fourth and Anderlecht in fifth, the competition remains fierce as the league progresses. The next match day will feature key encounters that could reshape the top of the table, including Club Bruges vs. La Gantoise.
