Anderlecht continued to stutter and lost at home to Charleroi by a single goal. Ahmed Hassan played the full match but couldn't help with the result and it seems that the current coach Verchauteren will be sacked pretty soon.
Tim Smolders scored the only goal of the game to hand Ahmed Hassan's team their first defeat in eight league games this season.
