The KustBoys doubled their lead just five minutes into the second half, The front two combined with Gueye setting up Fashion for his second of the match. Gueye made it 3-0 in the 59th minute.
Mathieu Maertens pulled one back with a well-rehearsed free-kick but it was a little too late as Oostende held on to win the match 3-1.
