Events
Match Events
- 0' We are underway at Luminus Arena. The crowd does wile while the referee lows the starting whistle.
- 5' has dominated the recent head-to-head record, winning 0 of the last 0 meetings.
- 10' The travelling Sporting du Pays de Charleroi supporters hardly appreciate their team being pressed down to the backline.
- 14' That looks like a foul for a Yellow card for Steeven Willems.
- 19' The referee has had an easy afternoon — neither side has been overly physical in the tackle.
- 24' Junya Ito has certainly something to prove this evening. He made 18 appearances with only 1 goals this season.
- 29' The home supporters are growing impatient. KRC Genk must find a spark to ignite this game.
- 34' Thomas Didillon has been one of the livelier players on the pitch with 0 goals to his name this season.
- 39' Patrik Hrosovsky has been a constant threat and now delivers with a goal on 39 minutes.
- 43' That is a Yellow card for Sporting du Pays de Charleroi. Ryota Morioka will be fuming at that decision.
- 48' Supporters expect more eagerness from Ali Gholizadeh, as he is very good at scoring at Luminus Arena with 0 goals in the last 0 games.
- 53' 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 Steeven Willems suffering a number of foals already.
- 58' Kaveh Rezaei has been disciplined this evening — perhaps mindful of those 0 cards already picked up this season.
- 60' Poor challenge from Joakim Maehle. The referee spots it immediately and shows the Yellow card.
- 62' Sporting du Pays de Charleroi manager makes another effort to make the tables turned. Shamar Nicholson is hanging Ali Gholizadeh on the field on 62 minute.
- 63' The referee does not hesitate — a Yellow card for Nicolas Penneteau on 63 minutes.
- 68' KRC Genk have won 528 goals from 316 games. They will be desperate to add to that tally today.
- 71' The Sporting du Pays de Charleroi bench stirs into life. Massimo Bruno is withdrawn and Joris Kayembe gets his opportunity.
- 74' KRC Genk make a change. Patrik Hrosovsky trudges off to be replaced by Kristian Thorstvedt on 74 minutes.
- 79' looks like a favorite considering 0 games won in last 0 matches with its main striker scoring goals.
- 80' That is a Yellow card for KRC Genk. Paul Onuachu will be fuming at that decision.
