vanackers took a creative approach on the field. vanackers created a good opportunity to score 17 minutes into the match when C. Van Den Ackerveken's hooked ball from the left created a scuffle in front of the goal, and the visitors' defenders had a hard time clearing the ball. A. Diop's technique was perfect on this sunny day and led to some breathtaking tricks that bamboozled the defence. With 29 minutes played, the home side managed to get a 1 - 0 lead as A. Leroi flipped the ball in after a cross from the right. C. Van Den Ackerveken could have put vanackers up one more, but he fired into the side netting after breaking free on the left after 37 minutes. streetkings's counterattack was impressive and was only stopped by a shocking foul. Somehow, the referee's cards remained in his pocket - a terrible decision! N. Jonet's resulting free kick was easily saved by the keeper. It was a fine day for S. Van De Schoor on his wing, his cross pass to G. Labens was especially delicate 39 minutes into the game, but the keeper saved. vanackers solidified their lead at the 40 minute mark, as M. Gerard dribbled the ball through the opposing central defence and scored to make it 2 - 0. A. Correia of vanackers received a yellow card after 41 minutes for unsportsmanlike behaviour. 42 minutes into the match, the visitors' central line of defence had to look on as G. Audineau broke through, making the score 3 - 0 for vanackers. Halftime score was 3 - 0. vanackers enjoyed most of the ball, as they maintained 70 percent of possession.

Cheers filled the stadium as A. Leroi broke through the visitors' central defence to put away the ball to increase the lead to 4 - 0 to vanackers. Usually a powerful player on the field, D. Roelandts looked kind of pale and tired under the hot sun. A speedy charge from the left side of the field increased the lead of vanackers to 5 - 0 as J. Guillemin finished it off competently, firing in from an acute angle. By now, the players in vanackers felt that victory was guaranteed and began to play it safe, focusing on defence and not risking too much going forward. Things were deteriorating for the away team as vanackers scored another to make it 6 - 0 after a left side attack resulted in a goal for G. Audineau after 73 minutes. vanackers put themselves up 7 - 0 when A. Leroi broke through on the right, leaving the entire defence trailing in his wake. At that, A. Leroi was noted down for a hat trick! Several players were looking tired, especially A. Knell who gifted the opposition a goal as he lost the ball to a still energetic M. Gerard of vanackers after 80 minutes. 8 - 0 vanackers increased the lead as J. Robledillo López struck to make the score 9 - 0 after an attack from the left left him unmarked in front of the keeper. vanackers claimed to have seen most of the ball, and the statistics agreed with them - possession being 74 percent.

The most dominating vanackers player was without a doubt G. Audineau. However, D. Roelandts made a disastrous appearance. Most important streetkings player was G. Labens. On the other hand, A. Knell's play was disheartening. The match ends 9 - 0.
