Match Events
- 0' The game is set. KAA Gent kicks off things out of here…
- 5' will be watching from the dugout nervously. His AS Saint-Etienne side need to improve if they are to claim all three points.
- 10' We are waiting for someone to take the initiative. Who will be the first to commit to attack?
- 15' Franck Honorat is a natural and has been asked to do a very specific job for AS Saint-Etienne tonight.
- 20' Mikael Lustig has certainly something to prove this evening. He made 12 appearances with only 0 goals this season.
- 25' KAA Gent seems to be on a short break. The game is mainly concentrated in the center. It’s high time they got back to action. Otherwise, it looks like a goalless game.
- 30' Neither side is committing men forward. This has all the hallmarks of a tense, tactical contest.
- 35' KAA Gent is showing some good football. However, KAA Gent are ready to play back every minute. It might result in some problems for the home side. The game will hardly remain goalless.
- 40' The travelling KAA Gent supporters hardly appreciate their team being pressed down to the backline.
- 45' KAA Gent receives a Yellow card for a hard tackle on 45.
- 50' AS Saint-Etienne are deployed in a today, looking to exploit space against KAA Gent's shape.
- 55' Wesley Fofana has been relatively quiet despite scoring 3 goals in his last 436 appearances.
- 60' It looks surprising AS Saint-Etienne does not make any changes. Thomas Kaminski has some obvious troubles when approaching to the goal.
- 64' KAA Gent receives a Yellow card for a hard tackle on 64.
- 64' Another change for AS Saint-Etienne made on 64 minute. Jean-Eudes Aholou leaves to be changed by Arnaud Nordin.
- 69' looks like a favorite considering 0 games won in last 0 matches with its main striker scoring goals.
- 71' KAA Gent make a change. Roman Yaremchuk trudges off to be replaced by Giorgi Kvilitaia on 71 minutes.
- 73' AS Saint-Etienne make a change. Lois Diony trudges off to be replaced by Zaydou Youssouf on 73 minutes.
- 76' KAA Gent receives a Red card for a hard tackle on 76.
- 78' The crowd applauds Laurent Depoitre as he leaves the pitch. Alessio Castro-Montes steps in for KAA Gent.
- 79' Mahdi Camara catches the referee's attention in entirely the wrong way. Yellow card on 79.
- 80' The AS Saint-Etienne bench stirs into life. Yann M'Vila is withdrawn and Robert Beric gets his opportunity.
- 85' While there is no rush on the pitch, let’s have a look at some stats. Milad Mohammadi made 401 appearances and scored 4 goals. He is very likely to score a goal today.
- 90' KAA Gent come into this ranked in Array. They desperately need points to push themselves up the standings.
- Both sets of fans can go home satisfied — a 0-0 draw is a fair result on the day.
