The regular Belgian season ended on March 15, but the champions and final league positions will only be determined after the play-offs, which begin next month, following a three-week break.

After initially struggling for form, Musona appeared to have eventually found his feet in his side’s last four matches, scoring three goals. Oostende also won three of their last five to finish the season strongly, but it was too late to force their way into Play-offs I, which are reserved for the clubs finishing in the top six on the standings.

Play-offs II are divided into two four-team groups and Oostende are in Group B, where they will play each of the other three clubs home and away, starting next week.

The winners of the two groups will then play against each other over two legs, with the ultimate victor proceeding to play against the team that finishes fourth in Play-offs I for the Europa League ticket.

Musona’s club are still in with a chance of playing in Europe next season despite having finished 10th during the regular season.
