Croky Cup: Gent and Union Advance, Seraing Eliminated

The Croky Cup continued its thrilling journey on Wednesday with several key matches taking place. Among the highlights, Gent and Union Saint-Gilloise emerged victorious, while Seraing was eliminated from the competition.

Gent Overcomes a Stubborn Challenger

Gent, currently in fine form in the Jupiler Pro League, faced a tough test against Deinze at the Ghelamco Arena. Despite dominating possession and creating numerous chances, Gent struggled to break down the resilient Deinze defense.

The breakthrough finally came in the 61st minute through Sven Kums, who found the back of the net with a well-placed shot. The 1-0 victory secured Gent's spot in the next round of the competition, where they will face Standard Liège.

Union Saint-Gilloise Cruises Past Westerlo

Union Saint-Gilloise, another strong contender in the Jupiler Pro League, enjoyed a more comfortable evening, defeating Westerlo 3-0 at the AFAS Stadion.

Teddy Teuma opened the scoring early in the match, setting the tone for a dominant performance by Union. Casper Nielsen and Dante Vanzeir added further goals in the second half, ensuring a convincing win for the Brussels-based club.

Union will now face Antwerp in the next round, promising a fascinating encounter between two of the league's top teams.

Seraing's Cup Run Ends in Defeat

Seraing, who enjoyed a strong start to the season, faced a disappointing end to their Croky Cup campaign, losing 2-0 to Club Brugge at the Stade du Pairay.

Noa Lang and Andreas Skov Olsen scored for Brugge, effectively ending Seraing's cup hopes. Despite the defeat, Seraing remains in contention for a top-half finish in the Jupiler Pro League, a commendable achievement for a newly promoted side.

The Croky Cup continues to provide exciting and unpredictable encounters, as teams battle for the coveted trophy. The next round promises even more intense action, with several exciting matchups on the horizon.
