Anderlecht 5 - Sivasspor 0

In its fifth match in European Cups, Sivasspor has suffered a disappointing defeat against Anderlecht. With 5 new players in the squad, and the injuries of Mehmet Yildiz and Sezer Badur, Sivasspor has shown signs of extreme lack of discipline and organization. Especially the Australian goalkeeper Petkovic made crucial mistakes and the team failed to produce goal chances.

Team's coach Bulent Uygun said in a post-match interview that he "apologizes" for the defeat and stressed the team's lack of experience in the European arena.


Sivasspor has been playing in the Turkish Superleague for 5 years and it's a success for them to be playing at this level already. Hopefully, they can do better in the UEFA Euro League.


Anderlecht's goals were scored by:
De Sutter 17, 76, Boussoufa 22, Chatelle 32, Frutos 90+ 2
