Events

Match Events

  • 0' The stage is set the green flag drops! Another match against KRC Genk and Royal Standard de Liège has kicked off!
  • 5' Cyriel Dessers adds to his 0 season tally! KRC Genk lead 1-0 — and this changes everything.
  • 10' A moment of individual brilliance could settle this. Both teams are waiting for that decisive action.
  • 15' Joseph Paintsil has been one of the livelier players on the pitch with 4 goals to his name this season.
  • 16' with the perfectly-timed delivery and Mike Ndayishimye makes no mistake. 2-0!
  • 17' Bryan Heynen was booked on 17.
  • 22' Lucas Noubi has certainly something to prove this evening. He made 0 appearances with only 0 goals this season.
  • 24' The deadlock is broken! Denis Dragus gets on the scoresheet on 24 minutes.
  • 26' That looks like a foul for a Yellow card for Gilles Dewaele.
  • 29' Brilliant from the ! Cyriel Dessers makes it 3-1 with a superb finish on 29.
  • 34' 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 Cihan Canak suffering a number of foals already.
  • 39' Nicolas Raskin has been disciplined this evening — perhaps mindful of those 0 cards already picked up this season.
  • 40' Controversy at the stadium! Bilal El Khannous argues furiously but the Yellow card stands.
  • 45' Renaud Emond is a natural and has been asked to do a very specific job for KRC Genk tonight.

  • 51' Merveille Bokadi is replacing Konstantinos Laifis for the Royal Standard de Liege side.
  • 56' It looks surprising KRC Genk does not make any changes. Bilal El Khannous has some obvious troubles when approaching to the goal.
  • 61' Time for substitution for KRC Genk. Bilal El Khannous is replaced by Nicolas Castro.
  • 62' A change in the Royal Standard de Liege ranks — Renaud Emond exits the field as Aleksandar Boljevic enters on 62.
  • 66' Denis Dragus picks up a Yellow card and will need to be extremely careful for the remainder of this match.
  • 71' The teams are not in a rush to score plenty of goals. It might look strange considering Royal Standard de Liège that had 372 games and scored 363 goals.
  • 73' Angelo Preciado gets the nod from KRC Genk. He replaces Joseph Paintsil and will look to change the dynamic.
  • 78' Jacob Laursen needs to be pretty careful with his discipline considering 0 Yellow cards this season.
  • 79' The referee reaches into his pocket. Out comes the Yellow card for Gojko Cimirot.
  • 80' William Balikwisha is replacing Nicolas Raskin for the Royal Standard de Liege side.
