Events

Match Events

0' KRC Genk have kicked off against K. Sint-Truidense VV. Both sides are eager to make an early statement.
5' The referee has had an easy afternoon — neither side has been overly physical in the tackle.
10' Over 10 minutes have gone by without a meaningful attack. The supporters want more.
15' The referee shows K. Sint-Truidense VV player a card on 15.
18' Toluwalas Arokodare puts KRC Genk on the lead.
23' Spectators do not have much to choose from both teams. The sides had several scoring chances but they still need a bit more than just a sight of a goal.
24' The crowd applauds Kahveh Zahiroleslam as he leaves the pitch. Robert-Jan Vanwesemael steps in for K. Sint-Truidense VV.
29' The home supporters are growing impatient. KRC Genk must find a spark to ignite this game.
31' The deadlock is broken! Jarne Steuckers gets on the scoresheet on 31 minutes.

48' The referee does not hesitate — a card for Louis Patris on 48 minutes.
53' 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 Christopher Bonsu Baah suffering a number of foals already.

79' A tactical swap from K. Sint-Truidense VV — Joselpho Barnes on, Adriano Bertaccini off on 79 minutes.
