Goed nieuws: de 24-jarige Engelse Premier League-aanvaller wordt uitgeleend aan Westerlo

Controversy has hit Belgian football with a reported ‘fixed’ game on the final day of the league season in a match between Genk and Westerlo. The scandal resulted in players being banned and one member of staff even losing his job.

Both sides went into the Belgian Pro League encounter in need of a point. This would see Westerlo avoid relegation and remain in the division, while Genk needed a draw to secure a place in the Championship round.

The home side took the lead in the match through a Ravil Tagir goal in the 80th minute before being pegged back only six minutes later.
