- 0' We are underway at AFAS-stadion Achter de Kazerne. The crowd does wile while the referee lows the starting whistle.
- 5' KV Kortrijk started playing very sharply right from the kick off. However, it slowed down the tempo rapidly by 5.
- 10' The travelling KV Kortrijk supporters hardly appreciate their team being pressed down to the backline.
- 15' Thibault Peyre needs to be pretty careful with his discipline considering 8 Yellow cards this season.
- 20' The Array continues to deliver drama. Both KV Mechelen and KV Kortrijk are desperate not to drop points on matchday .
- 25' A moment of individual brilliance could settle this. Both teams are waiting for that decisive action.
- 30' 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 Adam Jakubech suffering a number of foals already.
- 35' KV Kortrijk fans have not had much to celebrate tonight. Their side is struggling to get forward.
- 40' will be watching from the dugout nervously. His KV Mechelen side need to improve if they are to claim all three points.

- 46' Lucas Bijker has so much to prove this time. He replaces Alexander Corryn on 46 minute.

- 69' A tactical swap from KV Kortrijk — Jovan Stojanovic on, Herve Kage off on 69 minutes.
