Events

Match Events

  • 0' Packed stands, loud atmosphere — KRC Genk and Royal Antwerp FC get this one started.
  • 5' KRC Genk are enjoying more possession but struggling to find a way through a disciplined Royal Antwerp FC backline.
  • 10' 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 Zeno Van Den Bosch suffering a number of foals already.
  • 15' Tjaronn Chery has been one of the livelier players on the pitch with 0 goals to his name this season.
  • 20' looks like a favorite considering 0 games won in last 0 matches with its main striker scoring goals.
  • 25' 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.

  • 32' will be watching from the dugout nervously. His KRC Genk side need to improve if they are to claim all three points.
  • 37' It looks surprising KRC Genk does not make any changes. Mujaid Sadick has some obvious troubles when approaching to the goal.
  • 42' While there is no rush on the pitch, let’s have a look at some stats. Jarne Steuckers made 263 appearances and scored 12 goals. He is very likely to score a goal today.
  • 46' The deadlock is broken! Patrik Hrosovsky gets on the scoresheet on 45 minutes.
  • 51' KRC Genk seems to be on a short break. The game is mainly concentrated in the center. It’s high time they got back to action. Otherwise, it looks like a goalless game.
  • 54' What a strike from Patrik Hrosovsky! The score is 2-0.
  • 59' has dominated the recent head-to-head record, winning 0 of the last 0 meetings.

  • 77' It’s gonna be a card for Ayrton Costa.
