HOSINGEN, Luxembourg (Interstat) — Hosingen delivered a commanding performance on Sunday, decisively defeating Bastendorf 4-1 in a Week 5 matchup of Luxembourg’s 1. Division at Terrain Op der Hei.

The match, which defied a pregame projection of a high-scoring draw, was effectively decided by a dominant first-half display from the hosts. Aaron Malouda opened the scoring for Hosingen in the 10th minute, setting an early tone of control. He doubled his tally and his team’s lead just 12 minutes later, finding the net again in the 22nd minute to put Bastendorf under significant pressure.

That pressure yielded a third goal before halftime. Umarali Raxmonaliyev extended Hosingen’s advantage to 3-0 with a strike in the 32nd minute, capping a relentless opening period that left the visitors with a substantial deficit.

Bastendorf, which entered the contest seeking its first victory of the domestic campaign, struggled to generate consistent offensive threats against a organized Hosingen side. The second half saw a lengthy stalemate broken in a frantic sequence of late goals.

Bastendorf managed a consolation score in the 83rd minute, as Olawale Doyeni found a way past the Hosingen defense to break the shutout. Any momentum from that goal was instantly extinguished, however. Hosingen responded directly from the ensuing kickoff, with Veljko Simić restoring the three-goal margin just one minute later, in the 84th minute, to seal the 4-1 result.

The victory provides a strong start to Hosingen’s league season, improving its record to one win and no losses in 1. Division competition. The team also maintains a perfect record across all competitions this season. The outcome aligned with statistical models that favored Hosingen, which was given a 64.40 percent probability to win by the Interstat ELO system, though the final scoreline proved more lopsided than the same service’s game simulator, which had projected a 3-3 draw.

For Bastendorf, the search for its initial win continues. The team’s record in the league falls to no wins and one loss, mirroring its overall record across all competitions this season. The team will look to regroup after a match where it was outplayed for long stretches and unable to capitalize on its rare scoring opportunity before Hosingen’s immediate reply.

The match was played on Jan. 25, 2026, as part of the early phase of the Luxembourg domestic football calendar.
