- 0' Welcome to Cegeka Arena that hosts another battle between KRC Genk and KAS Eupen.
- 1' GOAL! Regan Charles-Cook scores on 1. Assisted by Gary Magnee
- 6' The travelling KAS Eupen supporters hardly appreciate their team being pressed down to the backline.
- 11' Players seem to put ease on their energy level Spectators hardly appreciate such approach. Teams need to speed up the tempo.
- 16' Jason Davidson has certainly something to prove this evening. He made 26 appearances with only 0 goals this season.
- 21' Christopher Bonsu Baah needs to be pretty careful with his discipline considering 2 Red cards this season.
- 26' KRC Genk started playing very sharply right from the kick off. However, it slowed down the tempo rapidly by 26.
- 31' It’s high time Wouter Vrancken made some changes to put the his team’s game back to action.
- 32' KAS Eupen receives a card for a hard tackle on 32.
- 37' Both teams are passing the ball around with high level of urgency. KRC Genk needs to do something about it to get closer to the goal.
- 42' Not even hints on scoring a goal over the last 42 minutes.
- 47' The teams are not in a rush to score plenty of goals. It might look strange considering KRC Genk that had 316 games and scored 528 goals.
- 49' It’s gonna be a card for Mark McKenzie.
- 54' Supporters expect more eagerness from Victor Palsson, as he is very good at scoring at Cegeka Arena with 0 goals in the last 0 games.
- 59' KAS Eupen is showing some good football. However, KAS Eupen are ready to play back every minute. It might result in some problems for the home side. The game will hardly remain goalless.
- 60' It is a substitution in KRC Genk team. Angelo Preciado is replaced by Daniel Munoz on 60 minute.
- 61' The KAS Eupen manager makes a substitution. Jerome Deom departs to be replaced by Amadou Keita.
- 66' 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 Patrik Hrosovsky suffering a number of foals already.
- 71' It looks surprising KAS Eupen does not make any changes. Mike Tresor has some obvious troubles when approaching to the goal.
- 73' KAS Eupen manager makes another effort to make the tables turned. Isaac Christie-Davies is hanging Regan Charles-Cook on the field on 73 minute.
- 74' Abdul Nurudeen was booked on 74.
- 75' Time for substitution for KRC Genk. Aziz Ouattara is replaced by Luca Oyen.
- 80' looks like a favorite considering 0 games won in last 0 matches with its main striker scoring goals.
- 85' We miss some good tackles and strikes. Is there anyone on the field to put the game back to action?
- 90' Another substitution for KAS Eupen to replace Isaac Nuhu by Jan Kral on 90 minute.
- With this win, KAS Eupen is likely to improve its situation in the overall team standings.
