Events
Match Events
- 0' The wait is over. Sporting du Pays de Charleroi get us underway at Cegeka Arena.
- 5' 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.
- 10' Not even hints on scoring a goal over the last 10 minutes.
- 15' The energy levels are beginning to show. Cedric Berthelin might look to freshen things up shortly.
- 20' Maarten Vandevoordt has certainly something to prove this evening. He made 12 appearances with only 0 goals this season.
- 25' Sporting du Pays de Charleroi come into this ranked in Array. They desperately need points to push themselves up the standings.
- 30' Stelios Andreou has been disciplined this evening — perhaps mindful of those 0 cards already picked up this season.
- 35' Both keepers have barely been tested. KRC Genk and Sporting du Pays de Charleroi are cancelling each other out in the centre of the park.
- 40' 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 Antoine Bernier suffering a number of foals already.
- 45' Sporting du Pays de Charleroi fans have not had much to celebrate tonight. Their side is struggling to get forward.
- 46' The KRC Genk manager makes a substitution. Yira Sor departs to be replaced by Joseph Paintsil.
- 51' Neither side is committing men forward. This has all the hallmarks of a tense, tactical contest.
- 56' Sporting du Pays de Charleroi is showing some good football. However, Sporting du Pays de Charleroi are ready to play back every minute. It might result in some problems for the home side. The game will hardly remain goalless.
- 59' The KRC Genk bench stirs into life. Toluwalas Arokodare is withdrawn and Luca Oyen gets his opportunity.
- 64' Sporting du Pays de Charleroi is defending very well tonight not leaving a chance for their rivals to get through for a goal.
- 69' looks like a favorite considering 0 games won in last 0 matches with its main striker scoring goals.
- 74' Daniel Munoz needs to be pretty careful with his discipline considering 2 Red cards this season.
- 79' Sporting du Pays de Charleroi 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.
- 84' A moment of individual brilliance could settle this. Both teams are waiting for that decisive action.
- 87' The Sporting du Pays de Charleroi manager makes a substitution. Jonas Bager departs to be replaced by Mehdi Boukamir.
