Events
Match Events
- 0' The game is set. KV Kortrijk kicks off things out of here…
- 5' It’s high time Chris Coleman made some changes to put the his team’s game back to action.
- 10' The teams are not in a rush to score plenty of goals. It might look strange considering KV Kortrijk that had 238 games and scored 307 goals.
- 15' We miss some good tackles and strikes. Is there anyone on the field to put the game back to action?
- 20' A tactical chess match is unfolding here. The question is which manager blinks first.
- 25' Supporters expect more eagerness from Ewoud Pletinckx, as he is very good at scoring at Guldensporenstadion with 0 goals in the last 0 games.
- 30' The travelling Oud-Heverlee Leuven supporters hardly appreciate their team being pressed down to the backline.
- 35' Oscar Gil Regano has been a danger all night but risks an early exit having now seen a card on 35.
- 39' That looks like a foul for a card for Thibault Vlietinck.
- 41' The referee reaches into his pocket. Out comes the card for Abdoulaye Sissako.
- 44' Goal! Thierry Ambrose scores his 28 goal in 452 matches.
- 49' The clock is ticking and both teams know a goal could change everything at this point.
- 54' Oud-Heverlee Leuven 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.
- 59' A moment of individual brilliance could settle this. Both teams are waiting for that decisive action.
- 61' Lequincio Zeefuik has so much to prove this time. He replaces Jovan Mijatovic on 61 minute.
- 63' Thierry Ambrose makes no mistake. The score reads 2-0 and KV Kortrijk are in front.
- 65' Another change for KV Kortrijk made on 65 minute. Dion De Neve leaves to be changed by Brecht Dejaegere.
- 68' Youssef Maziz gets the nod from Oud-Heverlee Leuven. He replaces Siebe Schrijvers and will look to change the dynamic.
- 73' A quiet spell here at Guldensporenstadion. Oud-Heverlee Leuven seem content sitting deep and soaking up pressure.
- 78' It is a substitution in Oud-Heverlee Leuven team. Thibaud Verlinden is replaced by William Balikwisha on 78 minute.
- 80' A meaty challenge results in booking for Birger Verstraete on 80.
- 84' A moment of madness from Ewoud Pletinckx on 84 minutes earns him a card. Oud-Heverlee Leuven will be frustrated.
- 85' The KV Kortrijk bench stirs into life. Thierry Ambrose is withdrawn and Massimo Bruno gets his opportunity.
- 90' Poor challenge from William Balikwisha. The referee spots it immediately and shows the card.
- 90' Gilles Dewaele has so much to prove this time. He replaces Nayel Mehssatou on 90 minute.
- The final score is 2-0.
