Nicky Hayen's side still had to fight with a desperate rearguard action in the second half as their hosts looked to conjure up an unlikely comeback.

Ademola Lookman pulled one back less than a minute into the second half but then had a penalty saved by veteran goalkeeper Simon Mignolet, who made several other important stops.

Those saves may have added to the home side's frustration as captain Rafael Toloi was sent off late on for violent conduct towards Maxim De Cuyper.
