Events
Match Events
- 0' The referee blows the starting whistle. The fans are roaring. The teams are ready for the match. KVC Westerlo is hosting RSC Anderlecht for another epic battle.
- 5' Neither side is committing men forward. This has all the hallmarks of a tense, tactical contest.
- 6' Igor Vetokele has been a constant threat and now delivers with a goal on 6 minutes.
- 11' A quiet spell here at Het Kuipje. RSC Anderlecht seem content sitting deep and soaking up pressure.
- 16' Francis Amuzu has been disciplined this evening — perhaps mindful of those 0 cards already picked up this season.
- 21' The travelling RSC Anderlecht supporters hardly appreciate their team being pressed down to the backline.
- 26' Maxim De Cuyper has been relatively quiet despite scoring 19 goals in his last 355 appearances.
- 31' The teams are not in a rush to score plenty of goals. It might look strange considering KVC Westerlo that had 138 games and scored 184 goals.
- 36' KVC Westerlo started playing very sharply right from the kick off. However, it slowed down the tempo rapidly by 36.
- 41' Supporters expect more eagerness from Mathias Fixelles, as he is very good at scoring at Het Kuipje with 2 goals in the last 2 games.
- 46' The RSC Anderlecht bench stirs into life. Noah Sadiki is withdrawn and Julien Duranville gets his opportunity.
- 51' RSC Anderlecht come into this ranked in Array. They desperately need points to push themselves up the standings.
- 56' Sebastiano Esposito has so much to prove this time. He replaces Amadou Diawara on 56 minute.
- 59' That looks like a foul for a Yellow card for Wesley Hoedt.
- 60' The supporters are chanting for Nene Dorgeles. He replaces Nacer Chadli on 60 minute.
- 62' KVC Westerlo receives a Yellow card for a hard tackle on 62.
- 66' That is a Yellow card for RSC Anderlecht. Mario Stroeykens will be fuming at that decision.
- 67' RSC Anderlecht make a change. Mario Stroeykens trudges off to be replaced by Lior Refaelov on 67 minutes.
- 70' Magnificent from Sebastiano Esposito! That is 19 goals in 487 appearances — and it could not have come at a better time.
- 75' The whistle greets Francis Amuzu as he departs to be replaced by Michael Amir Murillo.
- 76' A change in the KVC Westerlo ranks — Tuur Dierckx exits the field as Halil Akbunar enters on 76.
- 81' With 0 assists to his name this season, Zeno Debast is clearly more than just a goal scorer for KVC Westerlo.
- 83' with the perfectly-timed delivery and Halil Akbunar makes no mistake. 2-1!
- 83' It’s a booking for KVC Westerlo player. Halil Akbunar gets a Yellow card.
- 88' It looks surprising KVC Westerlo does not make any changes. Majeed Ashimeru has some obvious troubles when approaching to the goal.
- 89' RSC Anderlecht player sees a Yellow card in front of him.
- 90' Time for substitution for KVC Westerlo. Nicolas Madsen is replaced by Pietro Perdichizzi.
