Mechelen snapped a mini-losing streak and consolidated fifth spot in the Belgian First Division with a 1-0 win at Sint-Truiden on Wednesday.
The visitors at Stayen went ahead in the 65th minute, when 20-year-old substitute Christian Benteke wasted no time in stamping his effect on the game by netting the winner for his side seconds after his arrival on the pitch.
It was the Belgium international forward’s fourth goal of his loan spell from league rivals Standard Liege.
The result broke a run of two losses for Mechelen in the league, and the three points moved them within two of fourth-placed Club Brugge.
The loss leaves Sint-Truiden in 13th spot on the league table and two points above the relegation zone.
