Mbokani continues scoring form in Royal Antwerp’s defeat against Mechelen

Dieumerci Mbokani continues his impressive goalscoring form in Royal Antwerp’s 3-1 defeat against Mechelen in Sunday’s Belgian First Division A game.

Having scored in each of his last four games, the Democratic Republic of the Congo international was at hand to increase his goal tally to 11 at Afas Stadion this season

The 33-year-old Mbokani put the Great Old on the path of victory in the 19th minute after he was set up by Sander Coopman.

Antwerp, however, failed to build on the striking start, allowing their hosts to claw their way back into the game before the half-time break through Thibault Peyre and Igor De Camargo.
