Events

Match Events

  • 0' It’s Showtime! The match between KAA Gent and RSC Anderlecht is underway.
  • 5' 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.
  • 10' Pieter Gerkens is a natural and has been asked to do a very specific job for RSC Anderlecht tonight.
  • 15' The 37-year-old Ivan Santini has been sensational this season — 0 goals and 0 assists is a remarkable return.
  • 20' It looks like no one’s ball. RSC Anderlecht is used to counterattacking playing. None of the sides are ready to take the lead.
  • 25' 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 Alexander Sorloth suffering a number of foals already.
  • 27' RSC Anderlecht receives a Yellow card for a hard tackle on 27.
  • 32' RSC Anderlecht come into this ranked in Array. They desperately need points to push themselves up the standings.
  • 36' Sven Kums has been a danger all night but risks an early exit having now seen a Yellow card on 36.
  • 40' Anderson Esiti picks up a Yellow card and will need to be extremely careful for the remainder of this match.
  • 45' Nana Asare needs to be pretty careful with his discipline considering 0 Yellow cards this season.
  • 46' The RSC Anderlecht bench stirs into life. Pieter Gerkens is withdrawn and Ryota Morioka gets his opportunity.
  • 50' Controversy at the stadium! Nana Asare argues furiously but the Yellow card stands.
  • 55' Supporters expect more eagerness from Ryota Morioka, as he is very good at scoring at GHELAMCO-arena with 0 goals in the last 0 games.
  • 60' 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.
  • 62' The RSC Anderlecht manager makes a substitution. Zakaria Bakkali departs to be replaced by Alexis Saelemaekers.
  • 66' A moment of madness from Francis Amuzu on 66 minutes earns him a Yellow card. RSC Anderlecht will be frustrated.
  • 71' Timothy Derijck is ready to make an impact after coming on for Jonathan David at the 71 minute mark.
  • 74' The referee calls foul for Francis Amuzu. He receives a Red card.
  • 75' Brilliant from the ! Alexander Sorloth makes it 1-0 with a superb finish on 75.
  • 80' Birger Verstraete gets the nod from KAA Gent. He replaces Vadis Odjidja-Ofoe and will look to change the dynamic.
  • 84' Jeremy Doku gets the nod from RSC Anderlecht. He replaces Ivan Santini and will look to change the dynamic.
  • 89' Kara Mbodji has been one of the livelier players on the pitch with 0 goals to his name this season.
