Club YLA is in the semi-finals of the Belgian Cup after an incredible 4-3 victory against Westerlo Ladies. It was a crazy game in which Blauw-Zwart had to pull out all the stops.
YLA started strong and dominated immediately, but after a handsball by Camps during a dangerous counter, Club had to continue early on with ten players. Westerlo took the penalty and led 0-1. Yet Club did not let its head drop: Martlé neatly headed in the equalizer not much later, and so everyone went into the break 1-1.
After the break, Club went full steam ahead. Petry shot the 2-1 from a sharp angle, but Westerlo hit back and made it 2-2. It didn't stay the same for long, as Nelemans put in the 3-2 immediately afterwards. With a few substitutions, YLA tried to keep control, but in the closing stages Westerlo came alongside: 3-3.
Fortunately, Club still had an answer ready. Substitute Da Eira netted the 4-3 in the last minutes and gave YLA the deserved qualification.
After the 2-0 win against OHL Women in the eighth final and the 4-3 win against Westerlo Ladies in the quarterfinals, Club YLA continues its strong streak. The next challenge follows on December 20: Essevee Women away in the Lotto Super League.
