All traumas from previous encounters are momentarily forgotten. After an unexpected final attack in the final quarter, Union reached the cup final. Amora erased Club Brugge's bounty, then Sykes headed Dudenpark all the way into ecstasy in the 92nd minute. For the first time in 110 years, Union are in a cup final. What now in Club Brugge after this new strike?

Union – Club Brugge in brief:

Rasmussen kills a big chance

After the late goal in Bruges (2-1), Union did it again. In the 92nd minute, the tall, tall Sykes headed home. The English defender had led his team to the cup final, the first for the association since 1914.

The home team was in control. Al-Ittihad demanded the ball and made it difficult for Club Brugge thanks to their fast-paced football.

Nelson Mignolet put the ball into action for the first time with a cross shot. Not long after, Rasmussen was supposed to beat the club's goalkeeper, but the free-kick opportunity ended hastily on the visitors' goal.

After Union's giant opportunity, Club Brugge responded with two attempts from Thiago and Vanaken, but the two did not score.

Chances for Club Brugge, goals for Union

Al-Ittihad continued to press in the second half, and Klopp had the best opportunities. Thiago left them one by one.

20 minutes before the end, Amora broke the ban. The dark blue defenders were unable to clear the ball, so he shot it into the roof of the goal: 1-0.

With that result, it looked like extra time was in the making, until Sykes played along and Union nodded deliriously.

On May 9, FC Brussels will play the cup final against Antwerp or Ostend. After the first match, the score ended 1-1.
