Events

Match Events

0' It’s Showtime! The match between Royale Union Saint-Gilloise and KV Kortrijk is underway.
2' Habib Keita has been a danger all night but risks an early exit having now seen a Yellow card on 2.
7' 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 Bart Nieuwkoop suffering a number of foals already.
9' Teddy Teuma puts Royale Union Saint-Gilloise on the lead.
14' KV Kortrijk are keeping things exceptionally tight at the back. It will take something special to break them down.
19' A tactical chess match is unfolding here. The question is which manager blinks first.
24' It looks surprising Royale Union Saint-Gilloise does not make any changes. Youssef Challouk has some obvious troubles when approaching to the goal.
25' The referee does not hesitate — a Yellow card for Sambou Sissoko on 25 minutes.
27' A moment of madness from Kristof D'Haene on 27 minutes earns him a Yellow card. KV Kortrijk will be frustrated.
32' The home supporters are growing impatient. Royale Union Saint-Gilloise must find a spark to ignite this game.
37' KV Kortrijk come into this ranked in Array. They desperately need points to push themselves up the standings.
42' Supporters expect more eagerness from Ismael Kandouss, as he is very good at scoring at Stade Joseph Marien with 0 goals in the last 0 games.
46' A change in the KV Kortrijk ranks — Nayel Mehssatou exits the field as Kevin Vandendriessche enters on 46.
51' The tempo has dropped considerably in the last few minutes. Karim Belhocine will be considering his options from the bench.
56' We miss some good tackles and strikes. Is there anyone on the field to put the game back to action?
59' The deadlock is broken! Teddy Teuma gets on the scoresheet on 59 minutes.
63' Faiz Selemani doubles the advantage! 2-1 and this game is slipping away from the opposition.
68' Victor Boniface makes way for Simon Adingra at the 68 minute mark. A tactical switch from Royale Union Saint-Gilloise.
69' The Royale Union Saint-Gilloise bench stirs into life. Jean Thierry Lazare is withdrawn and Cameron Puertas gets his opportunity.
74' Royale Union Saint-Gilloise is showing some good football. However, Royale Union Saint-Gilloise are ready to play back every minute. It might result in some problems for the home side. The game will hardly remain goalless.
77' KV Kortrijk manager makes another effort to make the tables turned. David Henen is hanging Dylan Mbayo on the field on 77 minute.
82' Time for substitution for Royale Union Saint-Gilloise. Senne Lynen is replaced by Oussama El Azzouzi.
84' KV Kortrijk manager makes another effort to make the tables turned. Youssef Challouk is hanging Dorian Dessoleil on the field on 84 minute.
89' The teams are not in a rush to score plenty of goals. It might look strange considering Royale Union Saint-Gilloise that had 238 games and scored 394 goals.
Royale Union Saint-Gilloise celebrates a vital win. Three points that could prove pivotal come season's end.
