Officially, this seems to have been a city match, but the Riga team is in fact the Latvian team that was to play in the unofficial Olympiad in Munich. On their journey, they passed through Antwerp and a match was organised on the occasion. The local side saw a convincing but not dishonourable defeat.
The complete results are given in [1], the few games I have I took from [1], [2], and [3]. I’m grateful to Mr. Chris Baker from New Zealand for some corrections and for pointing out the existence of an extra game in [3]. Sapira’s victory is relatively famous.
