Events
Match Events
- 0' The game is set. KRC Genk kicks off things out of here…
- 5' Junya Ito has certainly something to prove this evening. He made 13 appearances with only 3 goals this season.
- 10' Supporters expect more eagerness from Felipe Avenatti, as he is very good at scoring at Stade Maurice Dufrasne with 4 goals in the last 3 games.
- 15' 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 Jere Uronen suffering a number of foals already.
- 20' The 29-year-old Selim Amallah has been sensational this season — 0 goals and 0 assists is a remarkable return.
- 25' Collins Fai has been disciplined this evening — perhaps mindful of those 0 cards already picked up this season.
- 30' That looks like a foul for a Yellow card for Jhon Lucumi.
- 35' The midfield battle is intense right now. Both Royal Standard de Liege and KRC Genk are fighting for every inch of the pitch.
- 40' While players are taking a pause, let’s have a look at their stats. The teams met 1 times this season with KRC Genk winning 100% of all matches.
- 44' That is a Yellow card for Royal Standard de Liege. Selim Amallah will be fuming at that decision.
- 49' Royal Standard de Liege 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.
- 51' That is a Yellow card for Royal Standard de Liege. Mergim Vojvoda will be fuming at that decision.
- 56' Konstantinos Laifis has been one of the livelier players on the pitch with 0 goals to his name this season.
- 61' The clock is ticking and both teams know a goal could change everything at this point.
- 65' Aleksandar Boljevic makes way for Duje Cop at the 65 minute mark. A tactical switch from Royal Standard de Liege.
- 70' Another change for Royal Standard de Liege made on 70 minute. Felipe Avenatti leaves to be changed by Obbi Oulare.
- 74' Controversy at the stadium! Konstantinos Laifis argues furiously but the Yellow card stands.
- 76' A moment of madness from Daniel Munoz on 76 minutes earns him a Yellow card. KRC Genk will be frustrated.
- 77' The referee has no hesitation. Collins Fai is booked for Royal Standard de Liege — Yellow card on 77.
- 81' Nicolas Gavory was booked on 81.
- 86' Luca Oyen is ready to make an impact after coming on for Cyriel Dessers at the 86 minute mark.
- 90' The referee has no hesitation. Selim Amallah is booked for Royal Standard de Liege — Red card on 90.
- will have plenty to reflect on. were simply the better side today.
