Events

Match Events

  • 0' Both captains have shaken hands and the referee is ready. We are underway at Stade Maurice Dufrasne!
  • 5' Mathieu Cafaro has been one of the livelier players on the pitch with 0 goals to his name this season.
  • 10' It looks like no one’s ball. Royal Standard de Liège is used to counterattacking playing. None of the sides are ready to take the lead.
  • 15' The 31-year-old Nikola Storm has been sensational this season — 0 goals and 0 assists is a remarkable return.
  • 20' Supporters expect more eagerness from Jordi Vanlerberghe, as he is very good at scoring at Stade Maurice Dufrasne with 0 goals in the last 0 games.
  • 25' Hugo Cuypers has been disciplined this evening — perhaps mindful of those 0 cards already picked up this season.
  • 30' will be watching from the dugout nervously. His Royal Standard de Liège side need to improve if they are to claim all three points.
  • 35' Both keepers have barely been tested. Royal Standard de Liège and KV Mechelen are cancelling each other out in the centre of the park.
  • 40' A moment of individual brilliance could settle this. Both teams are waiting for that decisive action.
  • 44' Mathieu Cafaro adds to his 0 season tally! Royal Standard de Liege lead 0-1 — and this changes everything.
  • 49' Brilliant from the midfielder! Kerim Mrabti makes it 0-2 with a superb finish on 49.
  • 54' 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 Alexandro Calut suffering a number of foals already.
  • 59' The teams are not in a rush to score plenty of goals. It might look strange considering Royal Standard de Liège that had 372 games and scored 363 goals.
  • 61' It’s gonna be a Yellow card for Gaetan Coucke.
  • 66' A quiet spell here at Stade Maurice Dufrasne. KV Mechelen seem content sitting deep and soaking up pressure.

  • 74' Yellow-Red KV Mechelen ring the changes. Dries Wouters has done his job and it is now time for Jannes Van Hecke to step up.
  • 76' Yellow-Red KV Mechelen make a change. Kerim Mrabti trudges off to be replaced by Nikola Storm on 76 minutes.
  • 77' Royal Standard de Liege player sees a Yellow card in front of him.
  • 82' Royal Standard de Liège currently sit in the Array table. A result here could be decisive in the race for the top positions.
  • 84' Yellow-Red KV Mechelen player sees a Yellow card in front of him.
  • 89' We are waiting for someone to take the initiative. Who will be the first to commit to attack?
