Franco-Congolese defender, Dylan Batubinsika placed the Belgians ahead in the 38th minute thanks to Dieumerci Mbokani’s assist.
Mbokani profited from clumsy defending from the Dutch team and fired the ball past Marco Bizot.
Antwerp’s lead was threatened in the 73rd minute after Aurelio Buta was given his marching orders for a second caution.
