BRUSSELS – Video review has gone awry in the Belgian Pro Football League. Then the match between Anterlet and Genk will be played again. The decision was made by the Professional Football Disciplinary Committee after Genk appealed.
Genk lost 1-2 in the match on December 23. The reason for the controversy was that the goal won by Genk was denied by the referee following the video review. Anderlecht goalie Kasper Schmeichel’s shot was deflected by Yeira Sour after Brian Heinens’ penalty came back goalless. Replays showed that Sour was inside the penalty area when the penalty was taken. And the referee did not take into account that two Anderlet players were in the penalty box. Genk argued that this was a misinterpretation of the law.
Genk is fifth in the Belgian league. Anterlet is in second place.
