Events
Match Events
- 0' We are underway at Stade Maurice Dufrasne. The crowd does wile while the referee lows the starting whistle.
- 5' The clock is ticking and both teams know a goal could change everything at this point.
- 10' While there is no rush on the pitch, let’s have a look at some stats. Selim Amallah made 103 appearances and scored 42 goals. He is very likely to score a goal today.
- 15' Mehdi Carcela has been disciplined this evening — perhaps mindful of those 21 cards already picked up this season.
- 20' Ilombe Mboyo has been one of the livelier players on the pitch with 0 goals to his name this season.
- 25' Petar Golubovic has been relatively quiet despite scoring 0 goals in his last 238 appearances.
- 30' KV Kortrijk 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.
- 31' Clinical. Composed. Brilliant. Selim Amallah makes it 0-1.
- 34' Magnificent from Obbi Oulare! That is 5 goals in 379 appearances — and it could not have come at a better time.
- 36' What composure from Ilombe Mboyo! The Belgium international strokes it home. 0-3.
- 38' KV Kortrijk player sees a Yellow card in front of him.
- 43' Supporters expect more eagerness from Bokadi Bope, as he is very good at scoring at Stade Maurice Dufrasne with 5 goals in the last 4 games.
- 48' 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.
- 53' Players seem to put ease on their energy level Spectators hardly appreciate such approach. Teams need to speed up the tempo.
- 58' It looks surprising Royal Standard de Liège does not make any changes. Gilles Dewaele has some obvious troubles when approaching to the goal.
- 61' Faiz Selemani has so much to prove this time. He replaces Eric Ocansey on 61 minute.
- 66' Both keepers have barely been tested. Royal Standard de Liège and KV Kortrijk are cancelling each other out in the centre of the park.
- 68' Obbi Oulare makes way for Felipe Avenatti at the 68 minute mark. A tactical switch from Royal Standard de Liege.
- 70' The supporters are chanting for Michiel Jonckheere. He replaces Hannes Van der Bruggen on 70 minute.
- 75' A moment of individual brilliance could settle this. Both teams are waiting for that decisive action.
- 78' The whistle greets Petar Golubovic as he departs to be replaced by Jovan Stojanovic.
- 81' Another change for Royal Standard de Liege made on 81 minute. Mehdi Carcela leaves to be changed by Jackson Muleka.
- 84' Michiel Jonckheere has been a danger all night but risks an early exit having now seen a Yellow card on 84.
- 89' will be watching from the dugout nervously. His Royal Standard de Liège side need to improve if they are to claim all three points.
- 90' The referee shows KV Kortrijk player a Yellow card on 90.
- Time to leave. No sensation happened. Another win for Royal Standard de Liège players.
