- 0' The game is set. Club Brugge KV kicks off things out of here…
- 4' What a strike from Hugo Vetlesen! The score is 0-1.
- 9' Not even hints on scoring a goal over the last 9 minutes.
- 14' Players seem to put ease on their energy level Spectators hardly appreciate such approach. Teams need to speed up the tempo.
- 19' 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.

- 49' 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 Joaquin Seys suffering a number of foals already.
- 54' It looks like no one’s ball. KAA Gent is used to counterattacking playing. None of the sides are ready to take the lead.
