Sparta wins after penalties and remains in race for Europe – Twente opponent
Thanks for following this liveblog. On Thursday, we will be here again. Then the Kasteel will be the battleground again. Sparta takes on FC Twente on Thursday. The return is next Sunday. Then we will know for sure who conquers the last European ticket.
But first, see you Thursday!
Van Bommel with Royal Antwerp champion of Belgium
Absurd is not the word for this denouement in the Belgian title race. In the last ten minutes three teams exchanged places for the championship.

Manfred Ugalde, Michel Vlap, and Michal Sadilek leave the field. Ricky van Wolfswinkel, Sem Steijn and Mathias Kjølø come in.

But in the summer Cerny can make a nice move.
And he owes that entirely to himself, according to technical director Jan Streuer. “He has self-confidence, plays with flair. That really shows.”
