Events
Match Events
- 0' That's the starting whistle at Lotto Park. Ninety minutes of football awaits between RSC Anderlecht and KV Kortrijk.
- 5' Faiz Selemani is a natural and has been asked to do a very specific job for KV Kortrijk tonight.
- 10' A tactical chess match is unfolding here. The question is which manager blinks first.
- 15' With 0 assists to his name this season, Majeed Ashimeru is clearly more than just a goal scorer for RSC Anderlecht.
- 20' It looks surprising KV Kortrijk does not make any changes. Marko Ilic has some obvious troubles when approaching to the goal.
- 25' Trent Sainsbury has been relatively quiet despite scoring 10 goals in his last 440 appearances.
- 30' RSC Anderlecht is defending very well tonight not leaving a chance for their rivals to get through for a goal.
- 35' Although teams showed high tempo form the start, they seem to slow down a bit. Both sides really need to catch a fire. Otherwise, we have another goalless match.
- 40' The tempo has dropped considerably in the last few minutes. Vincent Kompany will be considering his options from the bench.
- 45' RSC Anderlecht are keeping things exceptionally tight at the back. It will take something special to break them down.
- 46' Another change for RSC Anderlecht made on 46 minute. Jacob Bruun Larsen leaves to be changed by Francis Amuzu.
- 47' Goal! Trent Sainsbury scores his 10 goal in 440 matches.
- 52' RSC Anderlecht are enjoying more possession but struggling to find a way through a disciplined KV Kortrijk backline.
- 57' Over 57 minutes have gone by without a meaningful attack. The supporters want more.
- 60' The referee calls foul for Ante Palaversa. He receives a Yellow card.
- 64' Abdoulay Diaby is ready to make an impact after coming on for Josh Cullen at the 64 minute mark.
- 69' The KV Kortrijk manager makes a substitution. Ante Palaversa departs to be replaced by Julien De Sart.
- 74' The Guinea-Bissau Zinho Gano breaks the deadlock on 74 minutes. 0-2!
- 75' A tactical swap from RSC Anderlecht — Dauda Mohammed on, Lukas Nmecha off on 75 minutes.
- 80' 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.
- 85' 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 Ante Palaversa suffering a number of foals already.
- 86' Zinho Gano makes way for Jovan Stojanovic at the 86 minute mark. A tactical switch from KV Kortrijk.
- 88' The referee does not hesitate — a Yellow card for Gaetan Hendrickx on 88 minutes.
- 90' KV Kortrijk receives a Yellow card for a hard tackle on 90.
- With this win, KV Kortrijk is likely to improve its situation in the overall team standings.
