Events

Match Events

  • 0' What a night it is going to be! KAA Gent welcome Royal Standard de Liege for this crunch clash at GHELAMCO-arena.
  • 2' Magnificent from Noe Dussenne! That is 11 goals in 103 appearances — and it could not have come at a better time.
  • 7' Supporters expect more eagerness from Michel-Ange Balikwisha, as he is very good at scoring at GHELAMCO-arena with 0 goals in the last 0 games.
  • 12' KAA Gent are keeping things exceptionally tight at the back. It will take something special to break them down.
  • 17' Osman Bukari has been relatively quiet despite scoring 17 goals in his last 8 appearances.
  • 22' 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.
  • 27' Nurio Fortuna does the damage! The net is bulging and KAA Gent surge ahead!
  • 32' Cameroon international Michael Ngadeu has been a key figure this campaign — 0 goals and 0 assists in the Array this season.
  • 37' 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 Bokadi Bope suffering a number of foals already.
  • 42' Players seem to put ease on their energy level Spectators hardly appreciate such approach. Teams need to speed up the tempo.

  • 64' Obbi Oulare gets the nod from Royal Standard de Liege. He replaces Abdoul Fessal Tapsoba and will look to change the dynamic.
  • 69' Maxime Lestienne is a natural and has been asked to do a very specific job for Royal Standard de Liege tonight.
  • 70' KAA Gent make a change. Alessio Castro-Montes trudges off to be replaced by Tim Kleindienst on 70 minutes.
  • 75' While players are taking a pause, let’s have a look at their stats. The teams met 0 times this season with winning -% of all matches.
  • 77' Selim Amallah gets the nod from Royal Standard de Liege. He replaces Gojko Cimirot and will look to change the dynamic.
  • 82' KAA Gent currently sit in the Array table. A result here could be decisive in the race for the top positions.
  • 85' Clinical. Composed. Brilliant. Roman Yaremchuk makes it 2-1.
  • 90' The KAA Gent bench stirs into life. Milad Mohammadi is withdrawn and Bruno Godeau gets his opportunity.
