Zulte-Waregem•DefenderZulte-Waregem fought back from a goal down to earn a dramatic 2-2 draw against Cercle Brugge in an entertaining Pro League encounter. The visitors took the lead through Edan Diop's 28th-minute strike and looked set for victory when Oumar Diakité converted a penalty in the 71st minute. However, Zulte-Waregem's persistence paid off as Laurent Lemoine leveled the score in the 59th minute, before substitute Malick Mbaye grabbed the crucial equalizer just one minute after coming on in the 77th minute. Despite having less possession (46%), Cercle Brugge actually outshot their hosts 10-7 and registered more shots on target, but couldn't hold onto their lead as the match descended into a heated affair with six yellow cards distributed between both sides.
