Events

Match Events

  • 0' Both captains have shaken hands and the referee is ready. We are underway at Jan Breydel Stadion!
  • 3' The deadlock is broken! Tarik Tissoudali gets on the scoresheet on 3 minutes.
  • 4' The Belgium Thibo Somers breaks the deadlock on 4 minutes. 1-1!
  • 9' Both teams are passing the ball around with high level of urgency. KAA Gent needs to do something about it to get closer to the goal.
  • 12' Olivier Deman has been a danger all night but risks an early exit having now seen a Yellow card on 12.
  • 17' The energy levels are beginning to show. Hein Vanhaezebrouck might look to freshen things up shortly.
  • 22' Laurent Depoitre is having his name booked by the referee on 22.
  • 27' We miss some good tackles and strikes. Is there anyone on the field to put the game back to action?
  • 30' GOAL! Tarik Tissoudali scores on 30.
  • 35' Sven Kums has been one of the livelier players on the pitch with 0 goals to his name this season.
  • 40' Leonardo Da Silva Lopes is putting in a real shift tonight. He has covered more ground than anyone else for Cercle Brugge KSV so far.
  • 45' A tactical swap from KAA Gent — Andrew Hjulsager on, Vadis Odjidja-Ofoe off on 45 minutes.
  • 50' David Sousa, a Brazil , has 0 bookings this season and will need to keep his discipline tonight.
  • 55' KAA Gent fans have not had much to celebrate tonight. Their side is struggling to get forward.
  • 56' Fresh legs for Cercle Brugge KSV! Vitinho comes on to replace David Sousa.
  • 61' It looks like no one’s ball. KAA Gent is used to counterattacking playing. None of the sides are ready to take the lead.
  • 66' Cercle Brugge KSV 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.
  • 71' looks like a favorite considering 0 games won in last 0 matches with its main striker scoring goals.
  • 76' 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 Laurent Depoitre suffering a number of foals already.
  • 77' Time for substitution for Cercle Brugge KSV. Boris Popovic is replaced by Charles Vanhoutte.
  • 81' Thibo Somers doubles the advantage! 2-2 and this game is slipping away from the opposition.
  • 86' A meaty challenge results in booking for Andrew Hjulsager on 86.
  • 87' A meaty challenge results in booking for Leonardo Da Silva Lopes on 87.
  • 90' A moment of madness from Dino Hotic on 90 minutes earns him a Yellow card. Cercle Brugge KSV will be frustrated.
  • 90' A change in the KAA Gent ranks — Sven Kums exits the field as Nurio Fortuna enters on 90.
  • Game over. The scoreline of 2-2 tells the full story of an entertaining encounter.
