Racing Genk secured their place in the final of the Beker van Belgie thanks to a 2-1 vic over nine-time winners
RSC Anderlecht at the Lotto Park on Sunday night.
Paul Onuachu opened the scoring for Genk after profiting from a cross by Colombian fullback Daniel Muñoz in the seventeenth minute.
In the 59th minute, the Blue-White established a two-goal cushion, courtesy of an own goal from Matthew Miazga, but Adrien Trebel halved the deficit in the 73rd minute.
Searching for an equaliser with fifteen minutes to go, Anderlecht manager Vincent Kompany brought on Paul Mukairu but Genk held on to their slender lead.
Genk, who last won the Belgian Cup in 2012-2013, will face Standard Liege in the final at the King Baudouin Stadium, Brussels next month.
Onuachu has now scored 27 goals in all competitions this term, with 25 coming in the Belgian First Division A.
The former Midtjylland man has been placed on standby for Nigeria's Africa Cup of Nations qualifying matches against the Republic of Benin and Lesotho this month.
