Club YLA suffered a painful defeat against RSCA Women on Saturday in the very last minute of added time. In an intense and chance-filled match, purple-and-white eventually drew 2-3, further widening the gap in the standings.
Blue-black started the game best and immediately gathered some good opportunities in the opening quarter. However, the attractive start did not yield any goals. The biggest chance was for Moïsa van Koot, who went at the Anderlecht goalkeeper alone, but could not finish her attempt.
After half an hour, Anderlecht took the lead against the run of play. The visitors could not enjoy this for long, because ten minutes later Club YLA levelled the score again. Frederiksen scored the deserved 1-1 after a first half full of chances.
Also after the break Club YLA remained the most dangerous team. On the hour, Blauw-Zwart had the chance to climb into the lead via a penalty kick, but Petry saw her shot stopped by the Anderlecht goalkeeper. Barely a minute later, it was still on target: Da Eira cleverly worked the ball in at the far post and deservedly put Club YLA up 2-1.
However, RSCA Women reacted quickly and came alongside again in the 70th minute. Both teams then went full for the win, but for a long time it seemed to remain at a draw. Until deep into added time. In the very last minute Anderlecht struck after all and handed Club YLA a particularly sour defeat.
A bitter pill for Blauw-Zwart, which played a strong match but ended up with empty hands.
