Events

Match Events

  • 0' The stage is set the green flag drops! Another match against KRC Genk and KAA Gent has kicked off!
  • 5' Supporters expect more eagerness from Mathias Delorge, as he is very good at scoring at Cegeka Arena with 0 goals in the last 0 games.
  • 10' Jordan Torunarigha is a natural and has been asked to do a very specific job for KRC Genk tonight.
  • 15' The energy levels are beginning to show. might look to freshen things up shortly.
  • 20' The 24-year-old Zakaria El Ouahdi has been sensational this season — 0 goals and 0 assists is a remarkable return.
  • 25' We are waiting for someone to take the initiative. Who will be the first to commit to attack?
  • 30' KRC Genk have won 528 goals from 316 games. They will be desperate to add to that tally today.
  • 35' The Array continues to deliver drama. Both KRC Genk and KAA Gent are desperate not to drop points on matchday .
  • 36' That looks like a foul for a card for Konstantinos Karetsas.
  • 38' Clinical. Composed. Brilliant. Konstantinos Karetsas makes it 1-0.
  • 43' Over 43 minutes have gone by without a meaningful attack. The supporters want more.
  • 48' Andri Gudjohnsen, a Iceland , has 0 bookings this season and will need to keep his discipline tonight.
  • 50' Goal! Toluwalas Arokodare scores his 50 goal in 3 matches.
  • 55' Ibrahima Bangoura has been relatively quiet despite scoring 1 goals in his last 316 appearances.
  • 60' Fresh legs for KAA Gent! Hyllarion Goore comes on to replace Andri Gudjohnsen.
  • 65' 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 Bryan Heynen suffering a number of foals already.
  • 70' It looks surprising KAA Gent does not make any changes. Mujaid Sadick has some obvious troubles when approaching to the goal.
  • 71' Hyun-Gyu Oh has so much to prove this time. He replaces Toluwalas Arokodare on 71 minute.
  • 73' Another substitution for KAA Gent to replace Atsuki Ito by Aime Omgba on 73 minute.
  • 78' Tiago Araujo needs to be pretty careful with his discipline considering 0 Red cards this season.
  • 83' While there is no rush on the pitch, let’s have a look at some stats. Christopher Bonsu Baah made 316 appearances and scored 4 goals. He is very likely to score a goal today.
  • 87' Ken Nkuba gets the nod from KRC Genk. He replaces Zakaria El Ouahdi and will look to change the dynamic.
  • 88' Hyun-Gyu Oh doubles the advantage! 3-0 and this game is slipping away from the opposition.
  • 89' A change in the KRC Genk ranks — Christopher Bonsu Baah exits the field as Yira Sor enters on 89.
  • Time to leave. No sensation happened. Another win for KRC Genk players.
