GENEVA (AP) — The helicopter is on standby again.
Its task? To deliver the Belgian league trophy to the winner of another three-team title race that can only hope to match the epic climax of last season.
European soccer has intense title chases for fans to savor this month: The Arsenal-Manchester City duel in England will get the most attention while, away from the “big five” leagues, traditional city rivalries are playing out in Scotland, Turkey and Portugal.
Still, the best drama might be found in Belgium for a second straight year when the last round of games is played May 26.
It was an instant classic last June 4 when three different teams led the in-play league standings during the final six minutes of the season.
Toby Alderweireld’s 20-meter (yard) shot deep in stoppage time won a first league title in 66 years for Royal Antwerp with a 2-2 draw at Genk that took the trophy from the home team. Genk had one hand on it for just a few minutes after Union Saint-Gilloise’s one-goal lead at home to Club Brugge entering the 89th collapsed into a 3-1 loss.
