Events
Match Events
- 0' KICK OFF: KV Oostende gets underway.
- 5' KV Oostende 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.
- 10' It looks like no one’s ball. KV Mechelen is used to counterattacking playing. None of the sides are ready to take the lead.
- 15' Not even hints on scoring a goal over the last 15 minutes.
- 17' David Atanga makes no mistake. The score reads 1-0 and KV Oostende are in front.
- 22' has dominated the recent head-to-head record, winning 0 of the last 0 meetings.
- 27' KV Mechelen are keeping things exceptionally tight at the back. It will take something special to break them down.
- 32' The 32-year-old Guillaume Hubert has been sensational this season — 0 goals and 0 assists is a remarkable return.
- 37' With 0 assists to his name this season, Zechariah Medley is clearly more than just a goal scorer for KV Mechelen.
- 42' KV Oostende started playing very sharply right from the kick off. However, it slowed down the tempo rapidly by 42.
- 43' Magnificent from David Atanga! That is 6 goals in 320 appearances — and it could not have come at a better time.
- 46' Yellow-Red KV Mechelen ring the changes. Boli Bolingoli has done his job and it is now time for Geoffry Hairemans to step up.
- 51' KV Mechelen fans have not had much to celebrate tonight. Their side is struggling to get forward.
- 55' That is a Red card for KV Oostende. Alessandro Albanese will be fuming at that decision.
- 60' The teams are not in a rush to score plenty of goals. It might look strange considering KV Oostende that had 165 games and scored 210 goals.
- 63' That is a Yellow card for Yellow-Red KV Mechelen. Marian Shved will be fuming at that decision.
- 68' KV Mechelen is showing some good football. However, KV Mechelen are ready to play back every minute. It might result in some problems for the home side. The game will hardly remain goalless.
- 69' The whistle greets Sandy Walsh as he departs to be replaced by Gustav Engvall.
- 70' Gustav Engvall is replacing Sandy Walsh for the Yellow-Red KV Mechelen side.
- 75' with the perfectly-timed delivery and Thibault Peyre makes no mistake. 2-1!
- 77' A change in the KV Oostende ranks — Kenny Santos exits the field as Sieben Dewaele enters on 77.
- 78' Siebe Wylin has so much to prove this time. He replaces Robbie D'Haese on 78 minute.
- 80' Fresh legs for Yellow-Red KV Mechelen! Alec Van Hoorenbeeck comes on to replace Samuel Oum Gouet.
- 84' Theo Ndicka is ready to make an impact after coming on for Nick Batzner at the 84 minute mark.
- 85' Makhtar Gueye is ready to make an impact after coming on for Thierry Ambrose at the 85 minute mark.
- 89' It’s a booking for Yellow-Red KV Mechelen player. Alec Van Hoorenbeeck gets a Yellow card.
