Events

- 5' Players seem to put ease on their energy level Spectators hardly appreciate such approach. Teams need to speed up the tempo.
- 7' What a strike from Tarik Tissoudali! The score is 0-1.

- 17' A quiet spell here at Guldensporenstadion. KV Kortrijk seem content sitting deep and soaking up pressure.
- 22' KAA Gent fans have not had much to celebrate tonight. Their side is struggling to get forward.
- 27' 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 Tom Vandenberghe suffering a number of foals already.
- 32' The teams are not in a rush to score plenty of goals. It might look strange considering KV Kortrijk that had 235 games and scored 306 goals.

- 41' KAA Gent started playing very sharply right from the kick off. However, it slowed down the tempo rapidly by 41.
- 43' The referee reaches into his pocket. Out comes the card for Aleksandar Radovanovic.
- 48' Not even hints on scoring a goal over the last 48 minutes.
- 53' It looks like no one’s ball. KV Kortrijk is used to counterattacking playing. None of the sides are ready to take the lead.
- 56' Clinical. Composed. Brilliant. Tarik Tissoudali makes it 0-2.
- 60' KV Kortrijk make a change. Lynnt Audoor trudges off to be replaced by Kristiyan Malinov on 60 minutes.
- 65' A moment of individual brilliance could settle this. Both teams are waiting for that decisive action.
- 69' The crowd applauds Abdoulaye Sissako as he leaves the pitch. Felipe Avenatti steps in for KV Kortrijk.
- 70' The KV Kortrijk manager makes a substitution. Sheyi Ojo departs to be replaced by Dion De Neve.
- 75' The travelling KAA Gent supporters hardly appreciate their team being pressed down to the backline.
- 78' The crowd applauds Hugo Cuypers as he leaves the pitch. Gift Orban steps in for KAA Gent.
- 83' Djibi Seck is ready to make an impact after coming on for Isaak Davies at the 83 minute mark.
