- 51' Although teams showed high tempo form the start, they seem to slow down a bit. Both sides really need to catch a fire. Otherwise, we have another goalless match.
- 56' Mamadou Sylla gets the nod from KAA Gent. He replaces Elisha Owusu and will look to change the dynamic.
- 61' Belgium international Dante Vanzeir has been a key figure this campaign — 0 goals and 0 assists in the Array this season.
- 66' It looks like no one’s ball. KV Mechelen is used to counterattacking playing. None of the sides are ready to take the lead.

- 83' The referee is likely to let players tackle, as he already missed some meaty challenges during opening seconds.

- 88' 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.
- KV Mechelen will have plenty to reflect on. KAA Gent were simply the better side today.
