Sint-Truiden won 0-4 on Friday at Westerlo as part of the 24th day of the Jupiler Pro League. With 48 points, Wouter Vrancken’s men temporarily return to one point behind Union Saint-Gilloise, leader. Westerlo is 11th with 28 units.
The Trudonnaires were the first to appear dangerous when Robert-Jan Vanwesemael’s cross shot went just wide of Andreas Jungdal’s left post (3rd). From their first corner, the Canaries opened the scoring. Left alone at the far post, Rihito Yamamoto calmly opened his left foot to deceive Jungdal, with the help of the post (10th, 0-1).
The Limburgers tried to make the break as quickly as possible but Yamamoto’s attempts were blocked (16th and 27th), then too far away (29th). It was again from a corner kick that Saint-Trond doubled the lead through Abdoulaye Sissako. The Frenchman found himself in the right place to deflect Shogo Taniguchi‘s corner (31st, 0-2).

Before the break, the Canaries hit the nail on the head. Jungdal completely missed his clearance, which arrived at the feet of Keisuke Goto. The Japanese was quick to slip the ball to his compatriot Yamamoto, who just had to finish (42nd, 0-3).
In the second half, the debates became balanced but the Campinois failed to appear dangerous. Dylan Ourega then left his teammates at 10 after receiving a second yellow card (76th) for an anti-playing foul. Keisuke Goto then scored a final goal by deceiving the Westerlo goalkeeper with his left foot (82nd, 0-4).
