Wilfried Kanga's Disallowed Goal Sparks Controversy for AA Gent

🇧🇪 17 May 2026

AA Gent failed to secure their first win in the Belgian Champions' Play-offs, drawing 1-1 with STVV after a controversial incident involving striker Wilfried Kanga. The match ended without a victory for Gent, leaving the club still winless in the current play-off phase.

The game concluded with each side on the scoresheet, confirming Gent's continued search for points in the competition. Both teams shared the spoils, but the result did not alter Gent's standing in the table.

Wilfried Kanga appeared to have put Gent ahead when he scored during the encounter. His celebration was exuberant, drawing immediate attention from the crowd.

However, officials reviewed the situation and ruled the goal out, nullifying Kanga's contribution to the scoreline. The decision sparked debate among spectators and commentators alike.

Following the reversal, Kanga directed a challenge toward his own supporters, questioning their reaction to the disallowed strike. The exchange highlighted tension between the player and a portion of the fan base.

The incident adds pressure on Gent as they seek their first play-off win, with the disallowed goal representing a missed opportunity to gain momentum. The club will need to regroup ahead of upcoming fixtures.

Gent's next match will provide another chance to break the winless streak and improve their position in the Champions' Play-offs. The team will aim to convert chances into points without further controversy.
