Events
Match Events
- 0' The match kicks off with home fans waiting with anticipation for Royal Standard de Liège to score. At the same time, KV Kortrijk does not seem to pull back! Let’s get it on!
- 3' Maxime Lestienne has been a danger all night but risks an early exit having now seen a Yellow card on 3.
- 8' The teams are not in a rush to score plenty of goals. It might look strange considering Royal Standard de Liège that had 377 games and scored 373 goals.
- 13' KV Kortrijk come into this ranked in Array. They desperately need points to push themselves up the standings.
- 18' Larry Azouni has certainly something to prove this evening. He made 4 appearances with only 0 goals this season.

- 27' Controversy at the stadium! Petar Golubovic argues furiously but the Yellow card stands.
- 32' Royal Standard de Liège currently sit in the Array table. A result here could be decisive in the race for the top positions.

- 43' With 0 assists to his name this season, Mergim Vojvoda is clearly more than just a goal scorer for KV Kortrijk.
- 44' KV Kortrijk make a change. Herve Kage trudges off to be replaced by Larry Azouni on 44 minutes.
- 46' KV Kortrijk ring the changes. Petar Golubovic has done his job and it is now time for Lucas Rougeaux to step up.
- 51' It looks like no one’s ball. KV Kortrijk is used to counterattacking playing. None of the sides are ready to take the lead.
- 54' That looks like a foul for a Yellow card for Ilombe Mboyo.
- 58' Royal Standard de Liege ring the changes. Gojko Cimirot has done his job and it is now time for Mehdi Carcela to step up.
- 63' Ilombe Mboyo has been disciplined this evening — perhaps mindful of those 0 cards already picked up this season.
- 65' The referee does not hesitate — a Yellow card for Kristof D'Haene on 65 minutes.
- 70' KV Kortrijk are keeping things exceptionally tight at the back. It will take something special to break them down.
- 71' Anthony Limbombe has so much to prove this time. He replaces Renaud Emond on 71 minute.

- 88' Spectators do not have much to choose from both teams. The sides had several scoring chances but they still need a bit more than just a sight of a goal.
- 89' The deadlock is broken! Selim Amallah gets on the scoresheet on 89 minutes.
- 2-1 the final result. KV Kortrijk will be bitterly disappointed.
