Events

Match Events

  • 5' The 28-year-old Elisha Owusu has been sensational this season — 0 goals and 0 assists is a remarkable return.
  • 10' Both teams are passing the ball around with high level of urgency. Royal Antwerp FC needs to do something about it to get closer to the goal.
  • 15' The clock is ticking and both teams know a goal could change everything at this point.
  • 20' It’s high time Hein Vanhaezebrouck made some changes to put the his team’s game back to action.
  • 25' The teams are not in a rush to score plenty of goals. It might look strange considering Royal Antwerp FC that had 303 games and scored 434 goals.
  • 30' With 0 assists to his name this season, Alessio Castro-Montes is clearly more than just a goal scorer for Royal Antwerp FC.
  • 35' We miss some good tackles and strikes. Is there anyone on the field to put the game back to action?
  • 36' Royal Antwerp FC player sees a Yellow card in front of him.
  • 41' KAA Gent started playing very sharply right from the kick off. However, it slowed down the tempo rapidly by 41.

  • 51' The referee does not hesitate — a Yellow card for Ali Reza Beiranvand on 51 minutes.

  • 70' The travelling Royal Antwerp FC supporters hardly appreciate their team being pressed down to the backline.
