Royal Antwerp is still in the race to reach the final of the Croky Cup. Mark van Bommel's team drew 1-1 at KV Oostende on Thursday evening. The return of the semi-final will take place on February 29 in Antwerp.

Particularities
Mahamadou Doumbia was handed the ball after half an hour and decided to pull the trigger from about twenty meters. That turned out to be a good move: his shot turned wonderfully into the far corner: 0-1.

Nothing seemed to be wrong for Antwerp, which nevertheless had to accept the equalizer. Ewan Henderson took a shot at the corner of the box, looked up and found the far corner with a beautifully placed ball: 1-1.

Antwerp, where Vincent Janssen was missing due to a suspension, did not manage to win again in the future. He did get opportunities to do so, but Ostend goalie Gabriël grew into a standout at the Belgian coastal town.

In the final, one of the above teams will face Club Brugge or Union Sint-Gillis. Club managed to win the first leg in Bruges 2-1.
