Westerlo Manager Sacked, Both Captains Banned As Teams ‘Shook Hands’ For 1-1 Draw Before Full Time in KVC Westerlo vs Genk Belgian Pro League Football Match
Westerlo and Genk drew 1-1 in their final Belgian Pro League fixture of the season on March 17. But the outcome of the game was suspicious as both teams stopped playing after 86 minutes and looked happy with the draw.
The game between Genk and KVC Westerlo was the last match of the season for both sides. Westerlo needed just a point to escape relegation, while Genk only needed one point to finish sixth and secure qualification for the Championship round. Considering the same requirement, both teams appear to have decided to settle with a draw, allowing them to ‘reach’ their goals. After a 1-1 scoreline in the 86th minute, the two teams stopped playing. Despite having an extra man following a Genk red card, Westerlo passed the ball amongst themselves as both teams were happy to see the game out with the score level. Clubs quickly took action about ‘unethical gameplay’ and took action accordingly. Both captains and managers have received a two-match ban but Westerlo went one step further by sacking boss Rik De Mil.
