The game saw four players score against their former team, as Cerigioni, Trossard and Regales each scored in the first half for OH Leuven while on the other side former OHL player Wouter Scheelen scored through a stunning long range shot. Christophe Bertjens scored the second goal for Lommel United in the second half and after OHL failed to score following several opportunities, Brandon Deville nearly equalized in the last minute but his shot went high over the target which allowed OHL to progress.OHL bekert verder na moeizame zege tegen Lommel OHL progresses in cup following hard-fought victory over Lommel http://sporza.be/cm/sporza/matchcenter/mc_voetbal/Beker_van_Belgie_1516/MG_BvB_16F/1.2441439 9 April 2016 dead https://web.archive.org/web/20150927025143/http://sporza.be/cm/sporza/matchcenter/mc_voetbal/Beker_van_Belgie_1516/MG_BvB_16F/1.2441439 September 27, 2015 The seventh round saw OH Leuven play away at Mouscron-Péruwelz, in a game which took place just three days before the important relegation clash against Westerlo, causing Emilio Ferrera to leave regulars John Bostock, Yohan Croizet, Flavien Le Postollec, Jordan Remacle and Leandro Trossard out of the starting lineup. Mouscron-Péruwelz started strongly, creating several chances with both Tristan Dingomé and Filip Marković coming close to the opening goal in the first few minutes. The goal eventually came after 16 minutes when a free kick by François Marquet, carried by the wind, floated over all players and Rudy Riou straight into the goal. Kenneth Houdret and Pierre-Yves Ngawa came closest in the first half to equalize for OH Leuven but did not succeed. In a dull second half, the OH Leuven players seemed to be thinking more of the upcoming clash with Westerlo not creating chances, while Mouscron-Péruwelz was happy to defend their one-goal lead instead of pushing for more.Marquet beslist troosteloze bekermatch in voordeel van Moeskroen Marquet decides dull cup match to the advantage of Mouscron http://sporza.be/cm/sporza/matchcenter/mc_voetbal/Beker_van_Belgie_1516/MG_BvB_8F/1.2511788 https://web.archive.org/web/20151204045310/http://sporza.be/cm/sporza/matchcenter/mc_voetbal/Beker_van_Belgie_1516/MG_BvB_8F/1.2511788 dead 4 December 2015 9 April 2016 Results MatchDateOpponentVenueResultScorersReportR623 September 2015Lommel UnitedH3–2Trossard 6', Cerigioni 35', Regales 40'ReportR72 December 2015Mouscron-PéruwelzA0–1Report Season Friendlies During the season, OH Leuven played several friendlies. The traditional friendlies occurred early September (against Genk) to bridge the gap caused by the international matches and in the beginning of January following the short winter break. The other friendlies were the result of the 2016 reform of the Belgian football league system, which meant that following the 2015–16 Belgian Pro League regular season, the team had no more official matches from mid March until the beginning of the next season, effectively a four-month break. To bridge the gap, the team organised a series of friendlies in March, April and May which supporters could attend for free. On 20 April OHL invited several players on trial to participate in the match against Belgian Fourth Division team Francs Borains.
