Events
Match Events
- 0' KRC Genk have kicked off against Royal Antwerp FC. Both sides are eager to make an early statement.
- 5' Vincent Janssen is a natural forward and has been asked to do a very specific job for Royal Antwerp FC tonight.
- 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 Joris Kayembe suffering a number of foals already.
- 15' A quiet spell here at Cegeka Arena. Royal Antwerp FC seem content sitting deep and soaking up pressure.
- 20' Matchday of the Array and both teams know exactly what is at stake tonight.
- 25' While there is no rush on the pitch, let’s have a look at some stats. Victor Udoh made 310 appearances and scored 0 goals. He is very likely to score a goal today.
- 27' KRC Genk receives a card for a hard tackle on 27.
- 32' The clock is ticking and both teams know a goal could change everything at this point.
- 37' Royal Antwerp FC is showing some good football. However, Royal Antwerp FC are ready to play back every minute. It might result in some problems for the home side. The game will hardly remain goalless.
- 42' Not even hints on scoring a goal over the last 42 minutes.
- 46' Against the run of play, Patrik Hrosovsky has scored! This game has turned on its head.
- 51' Neither side is committing men forward. This has all the hallmarks of a tense, tactical contest.
- 54' Magnificent from Patrik Hrosovsky! That is 14 goals in 151 appearances — and it could not have come at a better time.
- 59' A tactical chess match is unfolding here. The question is which manager blinks first.
- 61' It’s a booking for KRC Genk player. Mujaid Sadick gets a card.
- 62' Christopher Scott is ready to make an impact after coming on for Dennis Praet at the 62 minute mark.
- 63' The Royal Antwerp FC bench stirs into life. Gyrano Kerk is withdrawn and Anthony Valencia gets his opportunity.
- 68' It looks surprising KRC Genk does not make any changes. Kobe Corbanie has some obvious troubles when approaching to the goal.
- 73' The supporters are chanting for Hyun-Gyu Oh. He replaces Toluwalas Arokodare on 73 minute.
- 75' Royal Antwerp FC make a change. Andreas Verstraeten trudges off to be replaced by Sem Renders on 75 minutes.
- 77' Ayrton Costa has been a danger all night but risks an early exit having now seen a card on 77.
- 82' It’s a booking for Royal Antwerp FC player. Toby Alderweireld gets a card.
- 87' Gerard Vandeplas is ready to make an impact after coming on for Tjaronn Chery at the 87 minute mark.
- 90' Time for substitution for KRC Genk. Jarne Steuckers is replaced by Noah Adedeji.
- That’s it! Another goalless match for KRC Genk and Royal Antwerp FC (для сухой ничьи).
