The South African international continued his good form heading into goal in his team’s victory at Guldensporenstadion
Percy Tau found the back of the net to help Anderlecht secure a 3-1 victory over Kortrijk in Friday’s Belgian First Division A game.
The 26-year-old has been delivering eye-catching performances since his arrival at Lotto Park and shone again at Guldensporenstadion.
The South African international secured his seventh league start of the season, spearheading Anderlecht’s attack on Yves Vanderhaeghe’s side.
Vincent Kompany’s men last tasted victory in September against Waasland-Beveren, playing draws with Eupen and OH Leuven before losing to Club Brugge, but they won again against the Guys.
The Purples and Whites started the game on a good note and opened the scoring already in the ninth minute of the match through Anglo-Nigerian forward Lukas Nmecha.
Tau then doubled his team’s lead with a well-done effort at the half-hour mark after receiving a timely pass from Michael Murillo.
Manchester City loan officer Nmecha completed his brace in the 63rd minute to seal his team’s victory despite a late effort from DRC international Ilombe Mboyo.

Tau, who participated for 75 minutes in the match, has now scored four goals in nine appearances since teaming with Anderlecht.
In addition to his goal, the 26-year-old center forward made two key passes, had a 66% hit rate and 25 touches on the ball.
Sierra Leone international Mustapha Bundu played for 55 minutes before being replaced by Ghanaian midfielder Francis Amuzu.
Senegalese forward Habib Gueye was brought into the game early in the second half by Eric Ocansey, but was unable to help his team avoid defeat.
The result ensured that Anderlecht moved up to sixth place in the Belgian First Division A table with 17 points from 10 games.
Tau hopes to continue his outstanding performances for Anderlecht in their next league game against Antwerp on November 1.
