Events
Match Events
- 0' The referee blows the starting whistle. The fans are roaring. The teams are ready for the match. Cercle Brugge KSV is hosting KAA Gent for another epic battle.
- 1' A stunning finish from Kevin Hoggas — that came from absolutely nowhere!
- 6' Germany international Lennart Moser has been a key figure this campaign — 0 goals and 0 assists in the Array this season.
- 11' The 26-year-old Giulian Biancone has been sensational this season — 0 goals and 0 assists is a remarkable return.
- 16' Dylan De Belder is putting in a real shift tonight. He has covered more ground than anyone else for Cercle Brugge KSV so far.
- 21' We are waiting for someone to take the initiative. Who will be the first to commit to attack?
- 26' Brecht Dejaegere has been disciplined this evening — perhaps mindful of those 0 cards already picked up this season.
- 31' Cercle Brugge KSV is defending very well tonight not leaving a chance for their rivals to get through for a goal.
- 36' Cercle Brugge KSV have won 339 goals from 369 games. They will be desperate to add to that tally today.
- 41' KAA Gent has dominated the recent head-to-head record, winning 1 of the last 1 meetings.
- 46' KAA Gent fans have not had much to celebrate tonight. Their side is struggling to get forward.
- 51' Matchday of the Array and both teams know exactly what is at stake tonight.
- 56' Cercle Brugge KSV are happy to let the opposition have the ball in their own half. The trap is set.
- 60' The KAA Gent bench stirs into life. Giorgi Chakvetadze is withdrawn and Giorgi Kvilitaia gets his opportunity.
- 64' A change in the Cercle Brugge KSV ranks — Dino Hotic exits the field as Thibo Somers enters on 64.
- 69' The teams are not in a rush to score plenty of goals. It might look strange considering KAA Gent that had 310 games and scored 466 goals.
- 73' The referee shows Cercle Brugge KSV player a Yellow card on 73.
- 74' The crowd applauds Elisha Owusu as he leaves the pitch. Brecht Dejaegere steps in for KAA Gent.
- 79' The referee is likely to let players tackle, as he already missed some meaty challenges during opening seconds. He is still to establish what should not be done by the players and what is acceptable on the pitch. It’s going to be a tough game for Milad Mohammadi suffering a number of foals already.
- 84' Kylian Hazard has so much to prove this time. He replaces Marton Eppel on 84 minute.
- 89' The clock is ticking and both teams know a goal could change everything at this point.
- 90' It’s a booking for KAA Gent player. Ihor Plastun gets a Yellow card.
- Both sets of fans can go home satisfied — a 1-0 draw is a fair result on the day.
