The final was played between KRC Genk, winners of the Belgian Pro League and the victors of the Belgian Cup, KV Mechelen.

Vukovic played a full match and kept a clean sheet in a 3-0 win over the newly promoted side KV Mechelen.

Vukovic, who has three caps for the Socceroos, just returned to start the new season with Genk after a jam-packed previous campaign.

The 34-year old was between the sticks for 51 first team matches including eight Europa League games last season, a personal record for the evergreen keeper.

Vukovic will be taking it up a step this season after his side qualified for the UEFA Champions League group stages.
