Events

Match Events

  • 0' Here we go! The referee blows the whistle and K. Sint-Truidense VV launch into their encounter with KAA Gent.
  • 5' Robert-Jan Vanwesemael is a natural and has been asked to do a very specific job for KAA Gent tonight.
  • 10' Both keepers have barely been tested. K. Sint-Truidense VV and KAA Gent are cancelling each other out in the centre of the park.
  • 15' Spectators are craving for more action. Both teams play very cautiously. They need to put some more energy.
  • 16' Clinical. Composed. Brilliant. Wilfride Kanga makes it 0-1.
  • 21' K. Sint-Truidense VV 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.
  • 26' A quiet spell here at Staaien. KAA Gent seem content sitting deep and soaking up pressure.
  • 31' Portugal international Leonardo Lopes has been a key figure this campaign — 0 goals and 0 assists in the Array this season.
  • 36' The tempo has dropped considerably in the last few minutes. Wouter Vrancken will be considering his options from the bench.
  • 41' K. Sint-Truidense VV are keeping things exceptionally tight at the back. It will take something special to break them down.
  • 45' Wilfride Kanga adds to his 0 season tally! KAA Gent lead 0-2 — and this changes everything.
  • 50' While there is no rush on the pitch, let’s have a look at some stats. Tibe De Vlieger made 299 appearances and scored 0 goals. He is very likely to score a goal today.
  • 55' The home supporters are growing impatient. K. Sint-Truidense VV must find a spark to ignite this game.
  • 60' KAA Gent have won 447 goals from 299 games. They will be desperate to add to that tally today.
  • 65' It looks like no one’s ball. KAA Gent is used to counterattacking playing. None of the sides are ready to take the lead.
  • 69' What a moment for Loic Mbe Soh! That strike on 69 puts his side firmly in control.
  • 73' The referee has no hesitation. Daiki Hashioka is booked for KAA Gent — card on 73.
  • 78' Supporters expect more eagerness from Michal Skoras, as he is very good at scoring at Staaien with 0 goals in the last 0 games.
  • 83' The teams are not in a rush to score plenty of goals. It might look strange considering KAA Gent that had 299 games and scored 447 goals.
  • 88' A moment of individual brilliance could settle this. Both teams are waiting for that decisive action.
  • The points are shared — K. Sint-Truidense VV 1-1 KAA Gent. Honours even.
