Highlanders

Match report

Highlanders took three points from Herentals on Sunday, closing out a 2:0 win in the Premier Soccer League's regular season. By then the visitors had looked comfortable enough to take the game anywhere, but home advantage told in the end.

The breakthrough came at the 62-minute mark when the hosts found the net. And here's the thing — Herentals had dominated possession without creating much, so when the chance fell, Highlanders took it.

A second goal followed at 89 minutes to close the game out properly. The visitors had nothing to do all evening after that, and the result stood.

Five yellow cards came in total, spread across both halves. To be fair, neither side made things easy for the referee, though the game stayed clean.

Highlanders move up to seventh with 41 points after their seventh consecutive unbeaten run. Herentals remain fifth with 45, but this was a result they needed to avoid.

The visitors came in with three straight wins, but that run ended here. And by then you could see the shift — a side that had been comfortable now faced a side that refused to go away.
