Events
Match Events
- 0' The game is set. RSC Anderlecht kicks off things out of here…
- 5' Although teams showed high tempo form the start, they seem to slow down a bit. Both sides really need to catch a fire. Otherwise, we have another goalless match.
- 10' Mats Rits, a Belgium midfielder, has 0 bookings this season and will need to keep his discipline tonight.
- 15' The 31-year-old Leander Dendoncker has been sensational this season — 0 goals and 0 assists is a remarkable return.
- 20' 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 Luis Vazquez suffering a number of foals already.
- 25' The referee does not hesitate — a card for Carlos Cuesta on 25 minutes.
- 29' A goal from the Nigeria international Toluwalas Arokodare! He fires home on 29 to make it 1-0!
- 34' RSC Anderlecht looks like a favorite considering 0 games won in last 1 matches with its main striker scoring 0 goals.
- 39' While there is no rush on the pitch, let’s have a look at some stats. Jan-Carlo Simic made 529 appearances and scored 4 goals. He is very likely to score a goal today.

- 54' It’s high time Thorsten Fink made some changes to put the his team’s game back to action.
