Eendracht Zoersel were only promoted into Provincial 1 this season and after winning their match at K.F.C. Lille last Saturday, they moved to the top of the league table. Heikant started the day in seventh place, despite having only won one of their last seven matches.

The early goal for the visitors was a sign of things to come. Zoersel were never in it and were lucky to go into the break just trailing 0-2. It was all over as a contest when Heikant made it 0-3, with a shot on the turn that went into the bottom corner of the net, eleven minutes into the second half. Despite being reduced to ten men, following a red card after 76 minutes, Heikant held on comfortably and could have added another couple of goals as well.

We were on the 09.20 Tunnel, which ran on time, heading for what we hoped would be a three match weekend in Belgium. As Rangers Merelbeke play at the ground of S.K. Merelbeke, who also play in this division, then they have a number of Saturday afternoon matches scheduled when there are fixture clashes and as luck would have it, this weekend was one of those occasions.

The match was 9th versus 6th in the league table. Unfortunately, it turned out to be a pretty non eventful match. Rangers were just plain rubbish, whilst Moorsel knew that a single goal would be enough to win it. Rangers had a man red carded three minutes into the second half, for an elbow in the face of a challenging player, but it still took Moorsel until the seventieth minute to make the breakthrough, with a shot from the edge of the box that found the bottom corner of the net.

Our evening fixture was a match in Antwerpen Provincial 1, just under an hour and a quarter drive north east, so plenty of time to check in at our overnight accommodation in Sint-Antonius en route.
