Events
Match Events

- 51' Royal Antwerp FC currently sit in the Array table. A result here could be decisive in the race for the top positions.
- 56' 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 Zinho Gano suffering a number of foals already.
- 61' The 31-year-old Pieter Gerkens has been sensational this season — 0 goals and 0 assists is a remarkable return.

- 82' Royal Antwerp FC 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.
- 83' A stunning finish from Mbwana Samatta — that came from absolutely nowhere!
- 88' Ibrahima Seck has so much to prove this time. He replaces Abdoulaye Sissako on 88 minute.
